Here are my issues. When do you use:

Effect/affect
whose/whom/who...

Great thread!!! I also consider myself a good writer, but the above has always been a problem for me. Thanks CT4 for the references.

The difference between endots and semicolons. I use both frequently and hope I'm using them properly.

This reminds me of my father who re-discovered semicolons in his later adult life. My mother called me ready to cut him because she was typing some papers for him and the only punctuation he used was the semicolon! LOL! He also learned the word moot and used it anytime he could, appropriate or not. Ex: There's no seasoning on this. This chicken is moot! LMAO!!
