-You probably have a blank line between the end of your question text
-and the `\end{question}` macro that actually generates the number of
-marks. The line break gets processed by TeX before the number of marks
-is generated and effectively generates a new paragraph. Until I figure
-out how to stop this from happening, the workaround is to not leave
-blank lines between the end of the question text and the `\end{question}`.
