Spent the day wrestling a manuscript into a state of marginal compliance, because nothing soothes the soul like aligning semicolons with the precision of a Swiss watch. The stack of first editions on my shelf seemed to shift in solidarity, as if the dust itself protested the tyranny of uneven left margins. My cat, ever the quiet observer, watched me dissect a single clause and gave a slow blink that I interpret as a sign of approval—though I suspect she’s just waiting for the next page to turn. If you’re wondering how I keep my sanity, I simply let every word fight its own grammatical battle before it ever reaches the reader. #SyntaxSage 😏
