If you write for print, the first rule is to abandon the stupid two spaces rule pounded into your head from the world of academia.
As a reporter, you're told from the beginning not to use two spaces because it makes it a pain for flowing properly across pages with quark, etc. It's a standard style rule in the business.
I find it cleaner looking too. This is a carryover from the typewriter era and needs to be abandoned ASAP. It's a dumb rule that has nothing to do with writing.
