A portrait of Insanity..

The Tatterdemalion is crazy. It is prerequisite in order to be a contributor to the Ethereal Voice. But on her sewing site, Tatterdemalion mostly reviews books and writes “how to” articles so her basic insanity does not come out as clearly as it might. Her most recent post goes a long way towards rectifying that….

Even those who care nothing for sewing might find it interesting to find out more about one of the editors of the Ethereal Voice.

  1. One of your editors who has a shred of self respect–enough to wear a loin cloth, let’s say–ought to crack down on your uncouth use of ellipses.

    You have a terrible case of headline diarrhea. Go back to your main page and count how many headlines you have that end in an ellipsis, or some typographic aberration thereof.

    An ellipsis, of course, consists of three dots, properly spaced with a thin space, but in common digital usuage not spaced; in any event not two and not four dots, but always three. They are never to be used at the ends of paragraphs and still less in headlines, without the special permission of your favorite religious figure (from which class you, the author, and your favorite muse are expressly excluded).

    If you can’t summarize a thought into a distinct headline, mull it over a little longer. Please desist from blasting your readership with these half-digested sentences. You have our sympathy, in the form of sympathetic vomiting, but you lose our attention as we become concerned about picking the spew out of the gaps between keycaps on our keyboards, which were never sanitiary but at least did not stink, until lately.

    Thank you.
