Greetings from the Land of OZ!
I have greatly enjoyed many new self-published authors. However, what drives me nuts are the homophone mistakes. I'll be reading along and enjoying the suspense, when CLUNK, the wrong word is used. Oh, the words sound alike, but I know that complementary and complimentary are vastly different words, even though they only differ by a single letter.

They are in alphabetical order, more or less. How many of these can you use correctly? Let us know how you fare in the BelllaOnline Reading Forum!
