The rules are a lot to remember. I have to refer to rules just about every time I write. The more rules you have in your head, the more you second guess everything you write because you're not sure you remember the crazy rule in the first place.<br /><br />Notice how the royal rule book is thicker?

I don't really ...comon comon comon more comma!<br /><br />I don't really know the rules about commas. I use them as speech markers. If I would pause after a word then a comma goes after that word. For example, if I am calm and simple talking I might write, "I didn't do this because of you." But if I am angry and laying fault I might write, "I didn't do this, because of you!"<br /><br />Sometimes I end up putting in a comma where it doesn't belong, but for the most part, the commas were at the right places. <br /><br />I suppose it is as good a time as any to learn the rules--or find a very good editor. I wonder which would be easier?Suehttp://kid-lit-reviews.comnoreply@blogger.com
