[Stylist] How to write diary entries for a piece

[Chris Kuell]

Hey Vejas,

Personally, I'd off set the diary entries by a double return (hit enter
twice above and below the entry) and then italicize the entry. 

Quotation marks are generally for dialogue, and underlining is not visually
pleasing. But most importantly, make sure the diary entries have a different
voice than the rest of the piece.

Subject: [Stylist] How to write diary entries for a piece

Hi, 
I hope you are all doing well. 
For one of my creative writing classes, I'm writing a story in which the
main character discovers another character's diary, and learns more about
that person through the diary. 
Since the diary is by someone other than my main character, do the entries
need to be quoted, or underlined? 
Thanks, 
Vejas
