Hey guys. I'm rewriting my opening chapter, and I've got an odd question. I've got a part where a group of protesters are shouting, and I'm wondering if it's possible to put it in one paragraph or better to leave as separate. Here's what I mean:
The shout carried and bounced along the walls. Another joined it, layered over the first. “Amesworth Pharmaceutical are murderers.” “Stop animal cruelty now.”
vs.

“Amesworth Pharmaceutical are murderers.”
“Stop animal cruelty now.”
The second one looks better to me, but I'm wondering if it wouldn't be better to put in a single paragraph. Odd question and a bit silly, I know, but as I've mentioned before, I don't actually know the technicalities of grammar. Thanks in advance.
