Pronoun Placement on Commands

In affirmative commands, put the pronoun on the end, remembering to stress the correct syllable.
Ex: Por favor, señorita Elena, escríbanos aquí su nombre.
Please, Elena, write your name for us here.

In negative commands; however, the pronoun goes before the verb.
Ex: No, no nos escriba su nombre con esa pluma.
No, don't write your autograph for us with that pen.
