Fixer Press Release
Fixer under contract
Last week I inked a deal with The Writer’s Coffee Shop to publish Fixer in 2013. You can read about it in the press release TWCS released this morning. Please share!
The Writer’s Coffee Shop Signs Contract With Author Gene Doucette For His New Novel “Fixer”
INKED??? YOU INKED a contract? What, spilled the inkwell all over it? You SIGNED a contract. Your DOG can INK something. You SIGN.
(Yes, it annoys me.)
Really? An idiom that’s at least a century old bothers you?

And the press release misuses the pronoun “who” in the first paragraph. I won’t mention the annoying use of “that” in the last paragraph because grammatically it is acceptable. But I would red-pencil it. (Still feeling irritable.)
