Indenting paragraphs
Whenever you write, you need to indent the beginning of your paragraphs. I know, I know, those of you who are astute will say I am a hypocrite because all throughout this CD I haven't indented my paragraphs. On computer programs, this has become acceptable because of cross-platforming of computer writing programs. Sometimes, when switching, or converting, from one writing program to another, the spacing gets confused when tabs are hit in order to form paragraph indentations. The way around the rule of indentation is to skip a line between paragraphs. This method is actually making its way to print but for your purposes, and those of the HSGQE, you need to indent each paragraph.
