Anyone with spare commas which they're not using, please, pretty please, if you can spare them, send them to the Parliament of the Hellenic Republic, care of the closest consulate or embassy.

Please.

Those guys seem to be suffering from an acute shortage of commas.

I think, that's, because Laurell K, Hamilton, stole them, all (http://community.livejournal.com/lkh_lashouts/314226.html). (Really. Scroll down to the paragraph starting "The last time I was in Seattle.")

And she must be jealously protective of those commas. I can't even get through the protective fences to glimpse them...

Really? Drat! Well, here's the excerpt. It's from her blog.

The last time I was in Seattle I was on my own. It was, I think, a six week tour. Really long, and Jon and I were dating, but not, yet, engaged. I was also divorced, but didn't feel like sharing that whole process. I guess, looking back, to some of the fans it looked like the end of one relationship was belly back to the other. Because, I didn't share. The break up of my first marriage was intensely painful, and confusing. I'm happier now than I've ever been, but there was a dark part where you believe that the death of one relationship is the death of all. It passes, but I remember it.

Ah, yes. Someone else who needs an editor. Preferably an editor with some skill in using chainsaws.

I would be perfectly willing to do that. I LIKE editing. And look, I even have a Chainsaw of Natural Selection (http://www.queenofwands.net/d/20031208.html).
