"Who" vs "whom" — without the headache.
If you'd answer the question with "he" or "she," use "who."
If you'd answer with "him" or "her," use "whom."
"Who is calling?" — He is. → who.
"Whom did you call?" — Him. → whom.
Most native speakers don't bother in casual speech, and that's fine. In formal writing, the rule still earns its keep.

"Caught red-handed" is medieval and literal.
It originally referred to a poacher or murderer caught with blood still on their hands. Scottish law records use the phrase as early as the 15th century.
The image was vivid enough to outlast the practice. We still say it about people caught in the act of anything, even shoplifting.

We're reading.

Meridian Publishers is open for submissions across:
— Literary non-fiction
— Essay collections
— Cultural criticism
— Translated work (we love a translator's note)
— Quietly ambitious debut fiction

What we look for:
A first page that knows what it is. A voice that earns the next paragraph. A subject the writer has clearly lived with — not just researched.

What we don't need:
A full author platform. A famous name. A finished social media following.

Send us the book first. The rest follows.

Exclamation marks lose their power when overused.
F. Scott Fitzgerald said using one is like laughing at your own joke.
One per page is plenty for most writing. One per email is generous.
If your sentence needs an exclamation mark to feel exciting, the sentence — not the punctuation — needs the work.
