Random Grammar Peeve

It's a common mistake that I'm sure I've made myself, but dangling parenthetheticals (or improperly nested parentheticals) really disrupt my reading process. I keep on waiting for the close parenthesis, and it never comes, and it's usually only a couple sentences further through the passage that I realize that the writer thinks they are writing non-parenthetically.

Now I'm off to finally see Superman Returns.

Rec

I don't usually rec things on my flist, but I'm enjoying this too much not to make sure everyone takes a look: bookishwench is writing Jayne Eyre, transporting the Firefly character to early nineteenth-century England and forcing him to dress up in drag. Oh, too much fun!

(I haven't read Jayne Eyre but general cultural literacy means I pretty much know/am spoiled for the entire plot, and I have read novels by both Charlotte and Emily.)

It's a WIP but it's not as if there's all that much suspense about how it ends, obviously, although I'm certainly eagerly waiting the next installment. Part One; Part Two; Part Three.
