it's not just the repetition moondog Send a noteboard - 28/11/2009 07:42:26 AM
it's the fact that it's a single word which is only used as a blunt segue to the next paragraph. as i pointed out below, it's like reading something a 15 year old would write. someone with sanderson's talent and body of work should be able to get to the next paragraph without the use of such literary blunt objects.
