Sometimes compound words have hyphens… how do we know when to draw the line? On today’s Writer’s Workshop episode, Juanita shares her tips to help you figure it out! Juanita Wootton-Radko is an enthusiastic reader, writer, and collector of books. When not at the library, she can often be found lurking about “used book” stores. Her lifelong passion for words has led to an equal passion for the structure of language and the grammatical tools we use to communicate. Juanita works at RTI Publishing as the Content and Project Facilitator and resident “Grammar Guru”. She is the recurring co-host on the Author to Authority Podcast with Kim Thompson-Pinder and hosts the Writer’s Workshop episodes.
