The effect that this style of long sentence given above achieves is a run-on effect. A run-on sentence consists of two or more independent clauses that are punctuated correctly and does not use the proper conjunctions. As a result, the sentence becomes confusing. There is a particular rule that should be followed in creating a sentence. It should contain 20-30 words only and that 50 words or more should be avoided as possible.
