"It is time," said the Gant. Gants have no name, and generally thought the idea of names an absurd notion. They were creatures of lake mist, of forest shadows, of the not quite things seen lurking in the wood. ((standard practice here is to use dashes in such cases.. making it look like this --> They were creatures of lake mist, of forest shadows, of the not-quite-things-seen-lurking-in-the-wood. or at least up to lurking... *LOL* YMMV, as ever)) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Picking his niece off the cot so that her legs dangled, he hugged her tight enough that she lost her breath. "See you round, kiddo." (( again with convention... it is usually put as "See you 'round" so that the reader knows instantly that you have shortened "around" and doesn't have to work too hard to find it out.)) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ oh BRAVO!!! BRAVO!!!!!!!! Ready to GO, SIR!!!!! WHOOOP!!!
