Writing Tips

Punctuating Dialogue

✧

➸ “This is a sentence.”

➸ “This is a sentence with a dialogue tag at the end,” she said.

➸ “This,” he said, “is a sentence split by a dialogue tag.”

➸ “This is a sentence,” she said. “This is a new sentence. New sentences are capitalized.”

➸ “This is a sentence followed by an action.” He stood. “They are separate sentences because he did not speak by standing.”

➸ She said, “Use a comma to introduce dialogue. The quote is capitalized when the dialogue tag is at the beginning.”

➸ “Use a comma when a dialogue tag follows a quote,” he said.

“Unless there is a question mark?” she asked.

“Or an exclamation point!” he answered. “The dialogue tag still remains uncapitalized because it’s not truly the end of the sentence.”

➸ “Periods and commas should be inside closing quotations.”

➸ “Hey!” she shouted, “Sometimes exclamation points are inside quotations.”

However, if it’s not dialogue exclamation points can also be “outside”!

➸ “Does this apply to question marks too?” he asked.

If it’s not dialogue, can question marks be “outside”? (Yes, they can.)

➸ “This applies to dashes too. Inside quotations dashes typically express—“

“Interruption” — but there are situations dashes may be outside.

➸ “You’ll notice that exclamation marks, question marks, and dashes do not have a comma after them. Ellipses don’t have a comma after them either…” she said.

➸ “My teacher said, ‘Use single quotation marks when quoting within dialogue.’”

➸ “Use paragraph breaks to indicate a new speaker,” he said.

“The readers will know it’s someone else speaking.”

➸ “If it’s the same speaker but different paragraph, keep the closing quotation off.

“This shows it’s the same character continuing to speak.”

I made these as a way to compile all the geographical vocabulary that I thought was useful and interesting for writers. Some descriptors share categories, and some are simplified, but for the most part everything is in its proper place. Not all the words are as useable as others, and some might take tricky wording to pull off, but I hope these prove useful to all you writers out there!

The Other You (T) written with @chocoluckchipz-bag [WIP] A Marichat friends-to-lovers fic where Adrien and Marinette are estranged from miscommunication on Adrien’s end. This story is very fun and very fluffy.

Broken (T) written with @raydara12 [WIP] After his brother and his mother died from a car accident, Adrien becomes a police officer. In this AU, Adrien never met Marinette and Ladybug and Cat Noir do not exist. This story is very exciting to read and is quick-paced.

Under Lock and Key (T) written with @edendaphne [WIP] While babysitting Manon, Adrien and Marinette go to the Louvre. Manon decides it would be funny to handcuff Adrien and Marinette together. Shenanigans ensue because the Louvre won’t let them take the handcuffs off.

Don’t Worry, Beer Happy (M) to be completed by @raydara12 [WIP] Both Marinette and Adrien work at a bar. Disguised in masks to prevent patrons from recognizing them, Marinette and Adrien take the charade even further by pretending to date each other. This story is hilarious and fluffy and I honestly don’t see why it’s rated M other than the fact that it’s set in a bar.

Maerynn’s Miraculous Short Stories (T) [Incomplete] A series of Love Square drabbles to remain incomplete. Some drabbles are drawn out over multiple chapters and others are not.

Bundled Miracle (M) to be completed by @raydara12 [WIP] As is implied by the title, Marinette is accidentally pregnant with Cat Noir’s kid. However, the reveal is quick. The only problem now is Gabriel’s reaction and how Ladybug will act with Hawk Moth still out and about. Adrien and Marinette love each other, making this story very special.

Bring Me Home (M) [Complete] Bring Me Home is 41 chapters long and I don’t currently have time to read it all, so I’m just copying what Mae wrote. “Everybody deals differently with the consequences of Hawkmoth’s defeat. The day after, Ladybug eagerly awaits her silly kitty, finally ready to hand him her heart and start a new chapter of their story with him. He never shows up. The day after, Adrien Agreste shuts the whole world out, ashamed of his father’s action, while Marinette grows more and more exhausted and depressed as the years go by. Five years later, can anything really be salvaged out of the remnants of their relationship?”

[Currently unnamed sequel to Bring Me Home] (Unrated) to be written by @raydara12 and a few other people This work hasn’t been released yet, but I understand that Mae outlined it quite a bit to follow Carlisle and Emma.

Of Daffodils and Second Chances (M) [Complete] Cat Noir died in the collapse of the Agreste Mansion, a tragedy that killed Gabriel Agreste and Hawk Moth as well as leaving Adrien Agreste in a two-week coma. A year after waking up, Adrien wanders past Cat Noir’s memorial, finding his missing partner and best friend sobbing her heart out. This story is very sweet and has a fluffy ending.

Soulmates (T) written with @edendaphne, @kryallaorchid, and @midnightstarlightwrites for @chocoluckchipz-bag [Complete] A series of four birthday drabbles revolving around the Love Square being soulmates. Mae’s story has soulmate marks, being that if one soulmate hurts herself, then the other soulmate finds that bruise on his body. It is very fluffy.

The Cat, the Bell, and the Wardrobe [Malfunction] (T) written with @eizabet, @midnightstarlightwrites, @kryallaorchid, and @chocoluckchipz-bag for @edendaphne [Complete] A six-part story where Cat Noir has a functioning zipper-bell. Mae’s story has the malfunction be Alya’s fault. It is quite hilarious.

Both of You (M) [Complete] Both of You is 55 chapters long and I currently don’t have time to read it all, so I’m just copying what Mae wrote: “Chat Noir finds Marinette sobbing on her balcony one night, very clearly upset. Concerned about his friend’s well-being, he goes out of his way on both sides of his mask to try and put a smile back on her lips. As they both learn to know each other better, they unveil secrets and newfound feelings. Will their unexpected blooming friendship be without consequences?”

A Beautiful Mistake (M) [Complete] Warning: Rape/Non-Con A Beautiful Mistake is 34 chapters long and I currently don’t have time to read it all, so I’m just copying what Mae wrote: “One single digit can change many things. Utterly pissed off at Alya one very early morning, Marinette misdials her best friend’s number and ends up telling off an unsuspecting stranger, who is, unknown to her, none other than her high school crush. From there, Adrien and Marinette grow closer on both sides of the screen through anonymous texting as they also reunite years after graduating through work. Marinette has to face a painful scar of her past in order to move forward with her heart, but luckily for her, Adrien might be the one able to help her heal.”

Maerynn wrote 12 stories for the Miraculous Ladybug fandom and had at least one other story in the works. From my understanding, she was also working on her own original story. I will be sharing this post once a month for the next year for each story she wrote and then two months after that for the stories she planned on writing. A way that people stay immortal is through memories. I don’t think Mae’s memory should fade away in this fandom. I want all the new people, the children growing up watching this show, the teens turning to Tumblr for the first time, and the adults enjoying the show with their kids to know Mae’s works and to see the kindness she put in the world (when said kids are old enough to read them, that is). Please respect the other authors and artists on this list, especially those who decided to continue Mae’s stories. Thank you.
