I'm going to write a paper on Narcissism. The title should be "Of waters and mirrors. Reflections upon Narcissism". I'm not sure it is correct, so I ask for your help. Thank you.
Correct in what way. Narcissus feel in love with his own reflection in the water. I think mentioning beoth mirrors and water is redundant.

If one or the other does not relate, then I agree only one of those words should be used.

There are a few glaring errors I've been seeing too often lately. Some are here; others are elsewhere on the Internet. There's no accounting, of course, for the comments on such places as Face Book; it's not a writing site. But on writing sites, it drives me cuckoo to see such...

I recently noticed that I hadn't changed the category of a few of my hubs that had been moved from Squidoo since that move. I saw the issue when I was updating hubs that weren't getting any or many views. I changed those hubs about decorating with rolled fondant from just HubPages»Food and Cooking...

Yesterday, while trying to show that a persons thinking was affected by preconception, I used the word "prejudice".The person felt that he had been insulted and attacked. Apparently he thinks that "prejudice" is a pejorative and implies all sorts of nastiness. ...
