Kym discovered recently that writing with words ending in 'ly' is an acquired habit.
We started reading the Harry Potter books a few weeks ago. Imagine her triumph when she saw three 'ly' words in the same sentence. Sweet! Not only could she blame that habit on someone (J. K. Rowling) but it gave her an excuse to use more of them herself! Our abiding love of those partiular descriptive words must have come from reading Harry Potter.
Did J. K. Rowling ever get in trouble for using so many? Because Kym has. Which is, of course, why she was so thrilled to find a rich and famous person who got rich and famous despite having the same habit.
