Webinar: Punctuating Your Prose

Learn how to properly punctuate your writing to make your prose more engaging and professional in our online event, Punctuating Your Prose!

The irony of well-punctuated prose is that you shouldn’t notice it at all. The purpose of punctuation is to make text transitions seamless, with sentences naturally flowing over the page like a steady stream of water. The last thing you want is your readers’ focus to be taken away from the story as they stumble over clunky or incorrect punctuation marks.

If you’re a self-publishing author wanting to become a punctuation pro, this webinar is a must. Join Troubador’s Deputy Editorial Manager Lauren Stenning as she busts punctuation myths, tackles the dreaded semicolon, and warns of the dangers of overusing ellipses.

The session will also cover the correct way to punctuate dialogue, UK vs US punctuation styles, the subjectivity of possessive apostrophes, and the intricacies of hyphenation.
