What is the correct rule of contractions in a story? I have heard many different things.

Something to do with giving birth, ain't it?

1) Use only in dialog.
2) Use though out story.
3) Never use in narrative.
4) Never use at all.
4.5) Only use in a first person narrative during dialog and narrative.
5) What's a contraction?

1. Eh?
2. Um...
3. Er..
4. Perhaps?
4.5. Beats me.
5. In a nutshell.

Forget this, I'm going over to YWU.

See ya later, gals and guys.
