| May 2, 2023 at 18:14 | comment | added | Edwin Ashworth | I prefer @Yosef's variant. But there seems too me to be a rather odd pairing: radical change and becoming bizarre are closely linked. Perhaps 'Not only has my world been drastically changed: it has been changed into something bizarre.' | |
| May 2, 2023 at 17:56 | comment | added | Yosef Baskin | Your sentence begins bifurcating what My world has immediately after "My world has not only been." So you're setting up that your world has not only been A but B. Then you introduce a new subject and verb "it’s also become." To correct the thing, I'd want Not only has my world ... but it's also become... | |
