Messala  +  948762 Wed, 21 Oct 09 07:32 AM I'm writing a story, should I use a period in the following bold sentence (and does the bold sentence contain any mistakes?): I thought catching a criminal would be easy. Oh how wrong I was to believe it would be easy. Or should I use a question mark because of the how? I thought catching a criminal would be easy. Oh how wrong I was to believe it would be easy?

Oh how wrong I was to believe it would be easy. Or should I use a question mark because of the how? I thought catching a criminal would be easy. Oh how wrong I was to believe it would be easy?   It's an exclamation, not a question.
