Step right up and get your laugh for the day.

I'm formatting novel manuscripts.

When I write, I format for my own ease. Now that I have a partial going out into the world, I figured I'd reformat everything and just work in the correct format from now on.

Here's stupid question #1:

When you swap italics for underline, do you underline each word individually in a sentence? Or the entire sentence (including punctuation) with one line? (The latter is what I'm inclined to do, but I figured I should ask since LJ knows EVERYTHING!)

Stupid question #2:

One, or two? I see this debate periodically. One space between sentences? Or two? Those of you who have submitted, what did you do?

Thanks!

1. I leave my italics as italics when I submit. I use Times New Roman as my font, however, and the italics stand out more than if I were to use Courier.

2. Just one space.
