In reply to DannySwottem5's comments on correct punctuation, It is well known that Shakespeare couldn't spell and often used more than one spelling for the same word. If he had been worried about his improper spelling we wouldn't have all of his now highly revered works! So the moral of the story is: if you enjoy writing, don't be hung up about the so called 'rules' which can definitely inhibit creativity if you over-stres about them.
I agree with the sentiment, but to be fair to Shakespeare, there was no standard English spelling at that time. A couple of generations later even, (Oliver) Cromwell could be spelt CRUMWEL by a literate person. The rules are just there to reduce confusion. Most of them can productively be broken from time to time.
