How to Describe Signs When Writing
Here's a tough one: when writing a short story and describing a strip club, I want to describe the signs outside of the club and what they say. I don't know how to do it. What is the right punctuation and way to do it? As of now, I have two sentences.
-A large red and green sign blinking Girls! Girls! Girls!, visible from the highway.
-A ten-foot, cut-out cowboy with a moving arm pointing to the entrance, Right Here Partner!, written across his hat.
My best guess is that the way I have it is correct. I have to submit this to an editor, I would like it to be correct before I do so.
