I’ve lived a normal life except perhaps in my youth during the 1960s and 1970s, when I lived in both Spain and Germany as an Air Force brat. I am 67 now and spent most of my life as an accountant or financial planner. Since eleventh grade I have been an avid reader, usually nonfiction. I had no interest in grammar or writing until a few years ago, when I asked my wife, “When should I use affect, and when should I use effect?” I didn’t understand how effect could be a noun. Wasn’t a noun a person, place, or thing? I started reading grammar books, and I was hooked. To learn more about grammar, I started diagramming sentences and writing stories. I love learning new words too. I especially like archaic words.
