This author's comma and fullstop button cannot function. I know some authors who put way too many peroids in one sentance. They can probably lend this poor punctuation-lacking girl a few. I can see why she failed her Geometry exam.
"I was just wondering if this seat was taken" the girl asked. "No have a seat" "Thanks my name is Alli" "Im Harry?"
Yes, you're Harry? And I'm wondering why you're ending that sentance with a question mark? Unless, of course, you know you're under the Imperius curse and being subjected to this humiliating role in a Mary-Sue fic??
"I know" Alli could of killed her self with that remark.

I so totally agree! I've seen sentences that have more commas than they do words, and that was in English fic. I thought we were a nation of geeks!? Besides, do they realise that there are two words that sound like YOUR but don't mean the same thing!? ~loads shotgun~ Aagh! I see Mary-Sues. They're everywhere! Help me, Eru!! (I am a serious LotR fan.) ~goes on mad MS killing spree~ Thankyou. Y'all write back now! (jesting) Yours BulldogFace
