Monospace Blocks
I only use monospace blocks when necessary - when I need multiple lines to line up character by character. The most obvious examples are tab and chord charts, but they are equally valuable for similar tasks. Example:
-w- -w- h -w- -w- -w- h c d e f g a b c
They should not be used for emphasis. Use horizontal rules,...
- ...indents, italics, and bold text instead.
Paragraphs
I find
that
it is hard to read
when people make numerous, one-line
consecutive paragraphs. If you really want someone to read the last line of a paragraph, use italics or bold text.
