You wouldn't use a comma and a period together.
"I am going to the store," Betty said. In that sentence I used a comma in the dialogue because I have a dialogue tag (Betty said). The period comes at the end of the sentence. I would have been incorrect to use a comma, period, and quotation marks.
Betty said, "I am going to the store." Notice the comma is with the dialogue tag at the beginning of the sentence. The period ends the dialogue.
Those are just a couple examples of the many ways to punctuate dialogue.
Use a comma when the person is speaking and the sentence continues (dialogue tag follows), like "I am leaving," she said. Use a period when the person is speaking and the sentence ends, like "I am leaving." She walked out.
The sentence would benefit from adding a comma after "brother," a comma after "story," and a period at the end to create better clarity and structure.
Speaking in the third person refers to referencing oneself by using one's own name or a pronoun (he/she/they) instead of using "I" or "me." This can create a sense of detachment or formality, and is sometimes used for self-reflection or to distance oneself from emotions or situations.
Yes, it is recommended to use a comma after the word "but" at the beginning of a sentence to separate clauses. This helps to clarify the structure of the sentence and improve readability.
A first-person narrative is when the story is told from the perspective of a character within the story using words like "I" and "me." A second-person narrative is when the story is directed at the reader using "you."
Third person is a point of view in writing or storytelling where the narrator refers to characters by their names or pronouns (such as "he," "she," or "they") rather than using "I" or "we." This perspective allows the narrator to have a broader view of the events and characters in the story.

the main person in the story
First person means that a story or a conversation is about the person speaking. It is uses the pronoun "I". For example, I walked the dog before I went to school.
The inverted comma " " , is normally used to show what a person has said or is saying verbatim and not as reported speech. Inverted commas are normally used it books to show when a person is speaking, this separates it from the narration of the story line. For example: John shouted to James "Come here quickly". Paraphrased it would be, John shouted to James to come quickly.
The correct spelling is narrator (the person relating a written story, or a speaking presenter in a film or video).
Speaking in the third person refers to referencing oneself by using one's own name or a pronoun (he/she/they) instead of using "I" or "me." This can create a sense of detachment or formality, and is sometimes used for self-reflection or to distance oneself from emotions or situations.
If you can imagine two individuals talking to each other, the "first person" is the person speaking ("I/we"). The "second person" is the person listening ("you"). The "third person" is someone not involved in the communication ("he/she/they"). The first person narrator is a participant in the story. The third person narrator details the story of someone not included in the speaker/listener or writer/reader relationship. The second person narrator would be telling a story that occurred to the reader/listener. It remains to be seen how this can be done to tell a story.

You are speaking about the climax of the story.
The best example of what primary analogue is, is that of a person speaking the words of a story. Other examples include old radios and megaphones.
You are speaking about the climax of the story.
It depends on the context. Here are a few examples: "Charles! Shoes go on the floor! You know that, don't you?" And that, my friends, is how the story ends. Usually, if not always, a comma goes after 'that', in my experience.
