This is Frank.
Frank is a full stop.
He’s round and small and things quietly stop when he’s around.
Frank is a full stop, and he acts exactly like a full stop should.Â
He splits up sentences that get too long . . .
“It’s true. I do.”
He never shouts . . .
“Ouch. Ouch. Help.”
And he never asks questions.Â
“That’s right.”
But what if Frank decides to stop acting like a full stop? What would happen then?
