The weird nose-lookin' things ( > ) are a reference to a screenwriting term called "writing on the nose." This occurs when a character is feeling an emotion and instead of hinting at it or working around it, he or she just comes out and says it (eg. "You really hurt me, Jeff!") It happened a lot on this particular page, so I decided to make my life easier and write a little nose. I quickly realized how stupid that looks and refused to ever do it again...then put it on the internet. Sigh.
Second draft due this weekend....
