Respuesta :

D) writing a new story every day, a successful career as an author seems certain.

The correct answer is D. Writing a new story every day, a successful career as an author seems certain.


A dangling modifier is a word, phrase, or a clause that doesn't really refer to anything in a sentence. If you take a look at option D, you will see that we don't know what the phrase writing a new story every day refers to. To correct this, the subject of the latter part of the sentence would have to be a person who does the writing.
