Description
Long considered to be one of the most baffling aspects of the writing process, punctuation isn’t really difficult if we just think of it as a way to give meaning to the words we put on a page. When we speak we do this with pauses, emphasis, and non-verbal behavior. When we write, it is a bit trickier because we use standard marks that should be quickly and easily understood by our reader. If it’s been a while since you’ve discussed or even considered what those standards are, this is the session for you! Beginning and veteran writers are welcome to bring their questions to this session where we’ll discuss the hot-button punctuation issues you face daily.
