Today, I tackle a common question I hear from people writing their life stories.
Should I include photos in my stories?
The short answer–yes–but there’s a big but when using photos.
Don’t force the photos to tell the story.
Write the moment the photo captures, and make the image the cherry on top–nice to have but not required.
Here’s a video from Microsoft that shows how to insert photos in Word. Here’s how to do it in Pages on a Mac.

Remember always: The only way to do this wrong is to not do it at all!
Until next time, happy writing!
What technical information should we know about added pictures to our story in social media network? For example add it jpeg for or gif? size?
Hi, Idalia. I’d use .jpeg or .jpg files. The resolution isn’t as important if you are posting online, but if you intend to print them in a book or something similar, I’d recommend having a resolution of at least 300 DPI. Does that answer your questions?
