Dear Microsoft Word, 2:47 AM

I love you to pieces. I know you know that. However, I have a problem with your grammar check- specifically, that it's often wrong. In fact, you haven't been right about a single change you wanted to make to my writing in all 40-something thousand words. Like this, for example:
You wanted me to change "...until she looked up to tell him something and found herself looking at the King instead" to "until she looked up to tell him something and found she looking at the King instead."
"She looking?" Really? I am shaking my head at you, MW. I expect better in the future.

Hoping you get a clue,

Ivy B. Greenflower, humble writer
