Only, the very rare individual.<br /><br />Yep, know about the acidity. I suck on Fisherman's lozenges, the original only. Even though, it's for coughing, the natural ingredients work on reflux.

Every couple of weeks it wants to cheat on chocolate with pizza. Fortunately my stomach doesn't lust after pizza as much as it used to (tomato acidity and aging bodies don't go hand in hand) so I'm able to keep my tongue fairly faithful.<br /><br />Editors and I often clash over ellipses and dashes. "My characters tend to -- " "Speak over each other?" "Stop interrupting, you -- " "Hey, sorry. Jeez Louise ... " This is what my mss. look like when the poor editor gets them. Some day I'll learn to write in complete sentences. I can't promise my characters will speak in sentences, though.Pat C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/10531462055912377327noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498899580300269250.post-81641463756363273282010-06-22T14:00:56.250-05:002010-06-22T14:00:56.250-05:00Rebecca, actually semicolons are great in certain ...Rebecca, actually semicolons are great in certain sentences, or to create a certain mood.<br /><br />I have to admit, I don't care for them in romances, generally. They seem too abrupt for the flow of the story, at times. However, if they're used as they are professionally like a letter, then it works for me. Although, I have seen them used well in romance. Lindsay Townsend accomplished it well.Savanna Kougarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15698138048388102279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6498899580300269250.post-87977380623429267272010-06-22T08:46:49.393-05:002010-06-22T08:46:49.393-05:00I'm also doing revisions this week.
