What makes the blog worth visiting?
A blog devoted to writing, grammar, good manners, and basically trying to save Civilization, one punctuation mark at a time.
Blogging advice or a short bloggy quote:
This blog is called “Punctuality Rules” for a couple of reasons. One, the name is a play on the word “punctuation.” Originally I had thought to just write about writing, grammar and spelling, but then I thought about the true meaning of “punctuality.” Punctuality is not just about making meetings on time, but about being exact. It’s about doing what needs to be done at exactly the time it should be done. To me, that’s an issue that transcends mere punctuation. That ripples right out into the real world. Doing what is right, and doing it precisely. When you have everybody doing exactly that, well, it seems to me that that’s more or less the foundation of basic civility . . . and civilization itself.
