The power of commas

Work has been a little slow this afternoon. I'm reminded of that Oscar Wilde quote: "I was working on the proof of one of my poems all the morning, and took out a comma. In the afternoon I put it back again."

A site warning of the dangers (and benefits) of misplaced commas.

A site with some quotes about writing.

My favourite is the one by Burton Rasco: "A writer is working when he's staring out of the window."
