You may not love grammar yet, but if you are a journalist you need to learn it so you can use it. We will look at an article about Lizzo from Rolling Stone to learn about colons, semicolons, serial semicolons, hyphens, em dashes, en dashes, restrictive/nonrestrictive clauses, subordinate clauses, coordinate vs. compound adjectives, singular indefinite pronouns, relative pronouns and more. This session will make you a stronger journalist. As a bonus, if you take any standardized tests, you will come away from this session knowing a few more answers.
