Capital Speech!
Always use a capital letter at the beginning of a passage of speech e.g.:
“Would you like to buy my book?”
Most writers get this right, but, if ownership is assigned before speech, some writers become confused and don’t think a capital letter is necessary because the speech isn’t the start of the sentence. However, the actual words of speech are a complete sentence and so a capital letter is a must e.g.:
Hannah asked, “Would you like to buy my book?”
