My Tips For Writing

?!

Punctuation.

This is a chapter about a very simple thing.

DON'T PUT MORE THAN ONE EXCLAMATION MARK/QUESTION MARK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I know I just did, but I wanted to make my point.

Don't, please, unless you want to see me angry. And you don't. Want to know why? Well, look at this:

"Can you please stop bothering me?!?!?!?!?!"

Horrible. It looks like he's screaming it at the top of his lungs, and in the other person's face.

Now what about this:

"Can you please stop bothering me?!"

Much better, isn't it? Now he's calmer, although you can still tell that he's mad.

Look at this too:

"What in the world???????????"

*shudders* Oh, how it hurt to write that. What does it look like? Like the character's SUPER confused.

And this:

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That hurt, why'd you slap me?!?!?!"

Let's be honest, it looks like the guy is having a heart attack or something, not that he just got slapped.

Okay, I hope I've made my point, and that you will use this in your writing.

Vote if this gets on your nerves, comment, and enjoy!
