Hello, been a while since I've published a chapter in this book. I've been reading some stories recently and have been noticing one thing in a lot of them, some people don't know how to properly use paragraphs, punctuation, and grammar; and that's okay! Here's just a few tips on how to use them right.
- Don't go overboard with sentences in a paragraph! Typically a paragraph is made up of 5 or more sentences, but I recommend somewhere from 5-8.
- Commas are very important! If you want to write a series of things in one sentence, I suggest using commas. And ALWAYS make sure to put a comma before the word "But."! Example: "I needed to get milk, eggs, and flour for the cake I was going to bake, but I can't find them!"
- Make sure if someone in your story is speaking to put quotation marks before and after what the person is saying! Example: "Hi!"
- Try to use capital letters. Always use a capital letter on names of people, places, or things. Also use a capital letter for the beginning of sentences, and the word "I"!
That's all I really have to say! And remember if this doesn't help, the internet will be more helpful than me. See you soon!
