tmcgFound this list of from some years-ago copyediting job. Everything but the name and beginning/ending punctuation is as it appeared in the manuscript.
"I saw that this car looked shorter than the others, but then realized it was petitioned off."
"He watched Sam boil down chunks of meat and stir floor into the broth."
"She glanced at me, then looked away quickly, but not before I caught a glimpse of the red whelp across her cheek."
"I met his wife while you were attending the horses. She's got a whelp on her face."
"The door was battered and deeply scared."
I have bunches more of these buried in notes on the backs of style sheets. If I clean up my office, maybe some more of them will surface.
