I'm coming to a part in my story where my little girl gets into a frightening situation. She ends up sobbing quite hard and tries to talk at the same time. My problem is, how do I punctuate between sobs? It would go something like this. 'I'm...sorry...I...shouldn't have...done...it.' I just want to make sure I put the correct punctuation in between the words. Thanks
Thanks for your help Paul very much appreciated.
Hi Elsie. I have to say I am far from an expert but if it were me I might actually right the word "sob" in between. I am not sure there is a hard and fast rule.
Someone is going to prove me wrong I'm sure. But isn't this sort of thing part of your voice as a writer. Again probably wrong.
Regards Paul.
