That helps so much, thank you! I understand the difference now.
Just to confirm, if the attribute is embedded, I don't do a blank line after it. Is that right?
I attached a pdf of some scenarios I'm not sure I understand. I'm working on my Literary Transcription cert and trying to make sense of Lesson 17 which covers attributions. The lesson doesn't include examples, just the exercise to submit for grading. I know I can't share a screenshot or specific example from that here, so I just made up some examples. My brain tends to read into text in over analytical ways, and since there aren't examples in this lesson I'm second guessing myself into oblivion.
The first scenario, would you treat that as an attribution with the adjusted margin and a blank line after?
The second and third scenarios, with the attribution after the quote and on the same line, would I braille that with it on the same line as the related text and a blank line after it?
(Side note - the examples aren't from a specific book. Just a random example my neurospicy brain threw together.)
That was a huge help! Thank you so much, Charles. I had asked a couple other places and no one was quite sure how to answer. I feel I have a much better feel for this now and will no longer drive myself crazy about it. Thanks!!!
Charles, I've been trying to wrap my head around this example/situation as well. I do understand that reverse emphasis can be done, but what guidelines link to reverse emphasis? I've been trying to find it in the guidelines, but I couldn't find anything specific. Is it an interpretation?
If so, would that passage still be considered braille correctly if it was done in italics except Nocturnal Spector? I've seen other examples done this way, so I wanted to confirm with someone if there's one way we should approach it based on a guideline, or if it could be done either way.
Thank you for your help and time!
