See, even before I ever talked to either of them I was aware, vaguely, of the fact that they were people who took over in the RP...but by the time I came to actually get to know them, that seemed SO long ago that it never really entered my mind. I did know. But it was buried pretty deep.
I ellipse a lot less than I used to, I use dashes and semicolons and colons a lot MORE than I used to and I think I'm a bit addicted. I love brackets (sorry, parentheses) but try not to overuse them. I will only use ampersands if I'm writing poetry ot very, very stylised prose.
I don't know if she has actually been a huge influence on my writing per se, but she showed me that it was possible to be screamingly funny AND to flesh out characters fully and have deep themes/dark plots/etc. in the same story. I will never be as funny as her but damn, I wish I could be.
