Clearing this up: Sight vs. site

If you want readers to see where you’re going in a story, you’ll want to get these two words right.

“Sight” is what you see, as in Watching the flying saucer land was the strangest sight he’d ever seen.

“Site” is a location, as in The landing site was in a secluded, wooded area.
