Inconsistency
I have been very inconsistent lately with my use of punctuation. I am an editor and writer by trade, and I think that’s why I take so many liberties on my blog. I love not capitalizing entire posts — even though the thought of in the 'real world' letting a misspelled, miscapitalized word miss my editorial eye and head off to be published makes me squeamish. But blogging is different. To me, at least.
I also hate the fact that I used the word “very” as an adverb in the first sentence of this post. Very is a word that says nothing. Forgive me for using it to describe my insane inconsistency. I am very sorry.

Isn't "very" an adjective, not an adverb...just checking. Let me know if I am wrong.

when very is describing an adjective, like inconsistent, which was describing me, it's an adverb :)

That's why you're the writer. Thanks for the lesson.
