Alternative Spelling

I just found a really helpful site for editors and proofers. Canadian, British, and American Spelling It's a site with alphabetical words with the three variations of English. This will help so much!

Lead vs led

We all know that lead is a metal, but this isn't about that. Today my little tip is about using lead and led in terms of guiding. Lead is a problem I see a lot of in proofreading, and yes lead is a correct word when talking about leading someone somewhere or a trail leading off, but authors seem to forget that the past tense of lead, is led. He is leading her down the hallway. She was led down the hallway. Hope this helps you guys out. Happy writing.
