RedPenRabbit, I love it when something I learned in a previous edit comes in handy. I just queried the use of "poisonous" where "venomous" seemed more appropriate, which I had learned about years ago for another edit, and I may or may not have squeed when I spotted it this time.
FYI:
venomous = toxins are injected
poisonous = toxins are ingestedBite, sting, or barb? Venomous.
Dangerous to eat or touch? Poisonous.#Editing #AmEditing #Writing #WritingCommunity #WritingTips @edibuddies
