This reminds me of one of Raymond Chandler's criticisms of his editor. When the editor change one of his split infinitives. He wrote back and replied, "When I split an infinitive, I split it so it stays split."
I tend to use a lot sentence fragments when I write. I usually edited them out, but I sometimes leave them in when I think it flows better.
