Style is using correct grammar in special patterns. For example, I sometimes use three dots “…” in place of a comma to extend a pause in reading… to emphasize a point… or create an emotion. Incorrect grammar may be used between quotes to preserve the speech and or diction patterns in presenting the words of a speaker or writer. For example, GF wrote, “…me can sleep better.”

Incorrect grammar should never be used in narrative. It cannot be, in this situation, passed off as "style."  If it so appears, the writer is unintentionally displaying a deficiency. There are instances where incorrect grammar, punctuation, or spelling appear… even on my posts. These are normally immediately obvious as typographical errors… “typos”… fast fingers.

I do find it amusing that you have identified my website in your retort. Though, I cannot discern you reason for doing so. My fiction, prose, and art are apolitical.

Mr. F, at what point in my post did I agree with your position?

And, I must apologize to the readers of this thread for misdirecting the thread.
