Hello!
I inserted a couple of e-mails in my WIP. Do I have to use italics or place the text between quotation marks? Or extra indentations? Or bold letters? Have you any idea about special rules? Hm, my question is not about grammar, is more about style, or formatting. Not sure it's the right board.
This is how I typed:
To: many recipients
From: observatory@ ...
Dear Stargazers ... etc.
In the above example, I want both To and From to appear, it's important. Later, when the e-mails are exchanged between the main characters, I don't use To and From, the text is self-explanatory.
Now, this question brings another: I also want to reproduce the text of an ad printed on a cardboard pinned above the door. Italics? Bold? Text placed at the center of the page? This is what I did: typed it in bold letters and centered. Perhaps at this stage of my writing is not that important, but still I want to have it right.
Thank you,
Adagio
