Using HemingwayEx, and wanted to know if anyone can help me more clearly demark the end of the excerpt, perhaps with an ellipse being inserted after the last word... At present, the sentence simply ends
My site is http://www.globalmemo.org
I have the excerpt set to 75 words. Attempted to put "..." after where the excerpt code is, but it display about a line or two below rather than immediately after the last word.
Any suggestions would be helpful!

Some more information... I did not notice this at first, but the HemingwayEx theme uses its own defined excerpt function.
Instead of the typical <?php the_excerpt(); ?> it uses <?php $hemingwayEx->excerpt() ?>
Unfortunately, switching over introduces new problems. With the HemingwayEx version, there is a built-in paragraph spacing that vanished when I replace it with the standard excerpt function.
I'm leaving the HemingwayEx version in for now, but hope someone can help me correct it to include the [...] that it is missing now.
