This is one for all you bloggers, teachers, story tellers and  preachers.

Do you find that the business of writing texts that are designed to be read on screen or aloud wreaks havoc with your punctuation?

I’ve been aware for a while now that I am using more commas than I used to.  I usually blame it on getting confused between American and British punctuation.  But today, I printed out a document that I had read at least six times on my computer screen, and then had to print it out again after deleting a dozen commas.

One-who-shall-remain-nameless used to collect extraneous apostrophes in the letters he received and send them back to the author.  Perhaps I need to set you all a game of gathering up unhelpful commas to see if I can stop this habit it its tracks.

OK, given Kate’s last comment on ‘blue?’, how do we feel about it snowing on Love Blooms Bright?

I struggle with simultaneously thinking it’s beneath us, but loving the way it floats across the blue.   Computer Kitsch is so tricky.

This blog may be quiet for a few days while I focus on the second Sunday of Advent,  and then head South to be Fairy Godmother.

Goddaughter is 7 this year.  Could anything be more fun than shopping for (with??)  a 7 year old girl for Christmas?  The boys are still a bit young to care.

This is a question about Love Blooms Bright, but it seems better to ask it here.

On two of my computers, the main text for Love Blooms is a dark grey.  On the third computer it is somewhat alarmingly blue.  Are most of you seeing blue or grey?

There is a similar problem with this blog, but it is not as acute because the grey is lighter.

I need a better camera, but you get the gist.
