It's not your fault- it's them dang vagrant commas!<br /><br />Yes Lisa, I must say you really don't find enough chances to use hither and thither in today's writing (although ya know one of my Victorian characters would be perfect for such a wordage use!).Marie Andreashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11422636765580836358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1268238247379169028.post-54031286918063034082010-09-05T16:04:06.517-07:002010-09-05T16:04:06.517-07:00Hee!

Most of the time I use them appropriately, but sometimes I use them in places where they technically shouldn't be used. It seems there is a hesitation that won't come across without the comma. Other times, I leave off a comma that technically should be used but it just doesn't feel right. Then, I start second guessing myself.Anita Clenneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08121439834252671730noreply@blogger.com
