Subject: [bksvol-discuss] em dashes
I'm confused again. I thought in a very recent discussion we were told that em
dashes, like ellipses. should have no space before but should have one space
after-- is thar correct? I'm working n a new book and was about to change the
em dashes when I went to my book share notes and saw they said no spaces
before or after. PLease refresh my memory as to both ellipses and em dashes
