Cite ae in APA style. To cite direct in APA, you must include the author's last name, year, and a page number, all separated by commas. If the e appears on only one page, use “p”. if it spans a page range, use "pp". An APA in-text citation may be parenthetical or narrative. All you do is sit at a typewriter and bleed. Ernest Hemingway “The scariest moment is always right before you start.” Stephen King “The first draft of anything is crap.” Ernest Hemingway “The secret to moving forward is to start.” Mark Twain “Start at the beginning,” said the king gravely, “and work your way up.”
