Discourse and Desires

. . . and just got kicked in the gut by the ending.

Seriously? Why didn't I see that coming???

So of course, now I need to re-read it and peep out all the signs.

If you haven't read this, please -- do yourself a favor.

And now, an open letter to K.J.Parker . . .

Dear K.J. Parker,

Please stop with the semi-colons.

They don't make your writing smarter, especially when half of them are inappropriate, half are superfluous, and the other half are plain ol' wrong.

I just started the first of three stories in the Engineer Trilogy and if I should never see another semi-colon again in my entire life, it'd be six lives too late.

Thanks for ruining my favorite punctuation mark.

Jerk.

With love,

~Gabe.
