Hi everyone; I'm on a roll with my story after 7 days of nothing.
I am lost regarding formatting. Do you know if every spoken sentence has to be indented? How many spaces do we put between paragraphs, and should everything be double-spaced or just descriptive sentences?

Thank you

I've always indented each new line of dialogue, along with new paragraphs. I make everything double spaced (no special spacing between paragraphs). Hope that helps!
