legit-writing-tips: fais-de-beaux-reves: This is true. Please learn this, writers. Or unlearn the two spaces thing I guess? I wanted to elucidate this topic a little more since there were a lot of responses and a bit of confusion. The only Style Guide that still recommends the use of two spaces is APA (the American Psychological Association). Those interested in book publishing are typically meant to follow the CMS (Chicago Manual of Style), which has done away with the two spaces after a period rule. So this goes beyond personal preference. If you intend to publish or send a manuscript off to an agent, publisher, etc., do not include two spaces after a period. Those who want to know why this is a rule in the first place - I’ll just leave this link here. http://www.quickanddirtytips.com/education/grammar/two-spaces-after-a-period?page=1 -- source link
