Some questions about using odd formating and styling


I don't particularly know the proper terminology, so feel free to inform me of any proper terms. Is it reasonable to have my story formatted with a line-by-line style? I've gotten in a habit of writing it like this.


"He waved back over at Ezra to restart the camera


I picked the knife back up and returned to my starting position


Ok


I'm good"


After getting in a habit of this, I found I could use it stylistically. So I may put the word "alone" on its own line to give more of a sense of actually loneliness. Sometimes I might put a quick thought of a character in-between their dialogue with another character or between some action. Like the "Ah" here.


"Now where was...


Ah


About 40 feet away, Ezra was moving a bench to set the camera on."


Not sure if any of it is dumb, so feel free to inform me. Also if anything else is off with this post, go ahead and tell me that too. I'm still reacquainting myself with writing.
