...if you've been reading my posts at all, you'll notice the absurd number of ellipses I use.
On my blog is fine, but when I'm writing, I've never been certain of the precise grammar rules for ellipses and all the different kinds of dashes.
So, I was delighted to find this article today.
I have definitely bookmarked it for future editing purposes ;)
...now, if I can only find out the correct grammar for formatting a stutter, I'd be golden ;)
oh my gosh, I also love using ellipses in my writing. Glad I'm not alone!
ReplyDeleteUse of ellipses has a bad rap. I happen to like the little suckers.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link. I copied and pasted the post onto a Word doc for future reference.
Heh. I always remove them from my writing (and do tend to use the dash instead) since they feel like something that belongs in comic books more than novels.
