Run-on sentences

> Thanks. As you can see, I did comment on one of them. BTW, in American English (as opposed to British English) the quotation marks follow the period even if you're just quoting a word or phrase, so the correct way to end your sentence on run-ons would be "run-on sentence." Sorry to be picky, but you asked for commentary!

Magpie:
Thanks, Carol! I always think that's right but lately have gotten insecure about quotations after periods. I must have been reading British English texts and it got into my head that I was doing it wrong!
