So I've been struggling with this for a while now to a decent degree. When a sound is made in my story I like to add a descriptive sound effect in bold text to better envelope the reader, (Ex: BANG, hisss, Whoosh). I'll Typically create an entirely new line for each sound effect. Now where this gets confusing is whether to add this sound effect before the sound making event or after.
Example A:
*THUD*
Tina's book fell to the floor as her jaw dropped in bewilderment.
Example B:
Tina's book fell to the floor as her jaw dropped in bewilderment.
*THUD*
Is there any particular order in general you guys think is best for this? Or is it strictly situational. Thanks in advance!
