I'm writing a story where there is a scene when one character forgives another. One of the sentences goes like this...

>"She saw him—loved him, and when she spoke..."

meaning that the "loved him" is like a correction of the previous words. Is this the correct way to format this? Or should it be the following?

>She saw him—loved him—and when she spoke..."

Best regards my friends,

a fellow anon

And from the same gallery in Tate Britain: Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose, by John Singer Sargent (1885–6).

I love that gallery.

I haven't read a lot, I know, but this year I really got into poetry, which I ignorant about. Started appreciating it a whole lot. Some of my favourites are Rimbaud, Verlaine, Cummings, Yeats, Stevie Smith, Apollinaire, Prevert, Shakespeare, Shelley. I also enjoy learning poetry by heart a whole lot, I use it as a kind of meditation, to cleanse my mind. So far I have memorized Clair de Lune by Verlaine, Ophelia by Rimbaud, The Tyger by Blake, She Walks in Beauty by Lord Byron as well as Sonnet 18, ''To be or not to be soliloquy'' and ''All the world's a stage'' soliloquy by Shakespeare.

I would really like to start reading, and working to understand as much as I can of Finnegans Wake through the next year.
