The M-dash is punctuation—it's that long dash.
If you write—you probably use it often.
But do you know the four main uses?
Jon only knew only three and only used two.

Join us as we discuss the uses and misuses of Juliet's favorite punctuation mark. And don't worry, Matt, we also discuss the M-Dash versus the N-Dash issue.

 

Jon mentioned Lauren Oliver's Pandemonium in the show. (Amazon link and text.)
The second book in Lauren Oliver’s remarkable New York Timesbestselling trilogy about forbidden love, revolution, and the power to choose.

In this electrifying follow-up to Delirium, Lena is on a dangerous course that takes her through the unregulated Wilds and into the heart of a growing resistance movement. This riveting, brilliant novel crackles with the fire of fierce defiance, romance, and the sparks of a revolution about to ignite.
