can a paragraph be one A4 side? because my paragraph is really long, it is one full side of an A4 paper
  

Top answer

William Faulkner, in his story The Bear , wrote a sentence several pages long, but for most of us, a paragraph is about four or five sentences. A paragraph can be a page long, but it is risky; I suggest you reconsider and try to find a clear break into at least two paragraphs. Hint: paragraphs sometimes become that long because of poor organization.
