Paragraphs organize related information into units small enough to avoid eye fatigue while reading. Changing paragraphs indicates a change of subject...or at least an offshoot from the former subject.

A few simple rules about paragraphing.

If the paragraph is too long and unwieldy, look for a good place to split it smaller, just as you would split a run-on sentence into a few shorter sentences. While varying sentence lengths adds texture to story, and varying paragraph lengths will add visual texture to the page, too long in either is not conducive to reader appreciation.

Do not mix the thoughts or dialog of character A with the actions, thoughts, dialog, etc. of character B. If B is moving, don't have A speak in the same paragraph. There are a rare few times when this is acceptable. For instance, you could have A speak, a comment about how B opens his mouth to speak and A hurries on to...more dialog. That's fine.

You can mix the movements of A and B in the same paragraph, as long as there aren't internal thoughts or dialog involved. Many paragraphs have a give and take timing to them.

In fast-paced scenes, keep paragraphs short and minimize dialog tags. In narrative scenes, especially those where there is a lot of introspection or description, you can indulge in longer paragraphs.

An introduction of a paragraph is the beginning of what the writer will be writing in that paragraph about. If the introduction is at the beginning of a story, essay, etc. If the introduction of a paragraph is also the introduction of a story, essay, etc. one will want to start of with something eye catching and interesting about the story/topic to get the readers attention. If the introduction of that paragraph was preceded by another paragraph one will want to have a good statement at the end that can be linked or tied into the new topic to make the introduction of the paragraph make more sense.
