Okay, I don't think Elisse (et al.) can actually BLAME me for interrupting them when they're speaking.... which apparently I do quite a lot.
Okay, yes, it is annoying and disrespectful and i TRY not to do it, although it's so so hard to do... but, like, I interrupt even MYSELF. What the hell. Read my other posts, I was realizing this as I wrote that last one... I don't even let MYSELF get a whole sentence out without an interjected (bracketed phrase) :semicolon: or --dashdash.... or ellipses.
Although that's like my signature grammar mark (loser? yes.)
...
I think it signifies... mmm.... boredom? time lapse... it cues people to read my written phrasing properly, since people BARELY EVEN KNOW what a comma means nowadays. If I ever write I novel, its going to be filled with ellipses. and I don't care what my editor says, I am not taking them out.
AND, I'm going to insist on recording the audiobook myself. and not doing voices. and not having an annoying voice like Laurel Merlington. That woman should have her throat ripped out. Just listen to this bitch: http://www.lauralmerlington.com/demos.html. She ruins so many long drives.
