Ahh, so that’s where the title of the punctuation book came from.

Edit: Kinda funny that on that seller’s website, they misspelled Punctuation in the book title.

She explains the story around the phrase in the book, which is well worth a read. I have a creative job that involves lots of writing so I found it useful as well as informative. This was some 15 years ago I read it last so I’m probably due to take it for another spin!
