To use a comma or create a new sentence?
I have the following examples in a story I'm writing and not sure if I should use commas or create new sentences.
I have 2 examples below.
‘I had to, Mark. You need to understand that. You left me no choice.’
‘Come on, Mark. Stop being so unreasonable. He’s given you a way out of this.’
Or, should I use a comma after 'Mark' in both cases.
‘I had to, Mark, you need to understand that. You left me no choice.’
‘Come on, Mark, stop being so unreasonable. He’s given you a way out of this.’

ryansamturner should I use a comma after 'Mark' in both cases. You may do it either way as far as punctuation is concerned. The multiple simple sentences lend a certain terseness.
