There are so many variables to the "rules," but you have to at least have a grasp of the standard way of doing things before you can deviate from it. For me as book designer, I prefer that the writer leave the blanks out of the manuscript, I don't need them and know where they should be. And never use paragraph returns to get to the next page! Always insert a page break! But manuscript format and prep is another post, yeah? Excellent, and informative post.
