Hi,
I'm new in these forums but I've reading them for a while now. I have a question that I hope somebody can help me with.
I'm writing a story where a thief is breaking into a house and after a while he finds a letter and reads it. How can I include the letter in the story?
Should I say something like:
He found a letter in the box. it read:
Mary,
What happened? I can't get a hold of you. Have you changed your cell number. bla blah blah ...
He got tired of reading the letter and went back to looking for valuables.
Should I leave a line between narration and the contents of the letter? Should it be in italics?
Any help and guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
