Mind the trap!

In stories we often put the reporting verbs (like say, reply and ask) before a noun or speaker's name. The meaning is the same but the style is more ‘literary’. We can’t do this with pronouns.

‘How are you, John?’ the girl asked.
OR ‘How are you, John?’ asked the girl.

‘Where are you going?’ she asked.
NOT ‘Where are you going?’ asked she.
