Punctuating Dialogue
✧
➸ “This is a sentence.”
➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.
➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”
➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”
➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”
➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”
➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.
“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.
“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”
➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”
➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”
However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!
➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.
If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)
➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“
“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.
➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.
➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”
➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.
“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”
➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.
“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”

( DIVUS CREWEL ) ⠀⠀he erases it and asks if you have any enemies. '–for no reason in particular.' when he does, because he will find out, he'll give them a talking and send them your best friend's way. whether that be riddle and his 'off with your head'!', leona with his scream shit, or even floyd with his 'i'll lock you in my basement like a psycho' shit. whoever he sends them to handles them well, getting the work off of his hands.
( MOZUS TREIN ) ⠀⠀gives everyone a talking. no one really knows what had happened just something happened and now everyone is getting scolded. everyone, excluding you for more obvious reasons, had to write standards for this. after school he talks to you and makes sure everything is alright, that you aren't getting bullied. if you are then he'll give you a pep talk, if you aren't he'll just remind you he and his cat are always here for you. so sweet.
( ASHTON VARGAS ) ⠀⠀sherlock holmes cosplay??/j he becomes a detective, in short. have you been acting differently in the past week? who has been in the locker rooms within the 5 hours of p.e? he brings mozus to help him track the handwriting, to which they succeed. he makes the kids run a lot more than the rest of you. if they can do the crime, they can run the time?
( SAM ) ⠀has rook go on a stalking spree, watching whoever he is suspicious of. he watches them in the store and when they grab something he increases the actual price. so imagine him following you around, changing the price tags of things you grab. if they get suspicious then he just says something about inflation and bores them with a business lecture.
