As with other punctuation marks, the semicolon, colon and apostrophe are often thought of as “the trees” that obscure “the forest” of writing—that if readers simply forgave the improper usage, the piece’s intent and excellence would shine through.</p><p>Most readers are ready to forgive the occasional misuse, <strong>but critical readers may regard writers that blatantly ignore convention as unprofessional, sloppy or incompetent.</strong></p></blockquote><p></p>
