**WARNING: OPINIONATED.
Short sentences are terrible for action beats.
Apart from separating or joining clauses, punctuation tells a reader where to breathe. Short sentences are like someone pressing pause repeatedly on a film. Action beats shouldn't allow readers to breathe, or be subjected to stilted narrative which short sentences do so well.
They're great for reveals, stream of consciousness. The pauses build tension. But adrenaline should flow.
Which should I prioritize writing? :boost:

Understanding Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Sources in Writing

Choosing the right type of source ensures accuracy and helps distinguish fact from opinion, ultimately building trust with readers.https://dreamspacestudio.net/understanding-primary-secondary-and-tertiary-sources-in-writing/
