When do you use a comma and period after the person is speaking in the story?

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.


I enjoy working with you as well is there a comma before as well?

If you were saying this, would you pause before you said 'as well'? If so, put a comma. If not, don't. If this is the whole sentence, a comma is probably unnecessary, as there is not really any possibility of misunderstanding. But if it is part of a longer sentence, read through the whole thing and consider where the pauses would naturally fall.

When you have a quote and the 'he said' comes after the quote do you use a period or a comma after the quote?

When the attribution (e.g., 'he said') follows the quote, you should use a comma inside the quotation marks before the attribution and follow it with a period after the attribution. For example: "I am going to the store," he said.
