Question

The code I am running is producing overlap and not sure how to get the correct format. 

I have most of it when testing it it contains the other stuff I was testing and I'm not sure if there is a way to capture what I enter than the previous unless that is by default. I am providing my code and need assistance.

#Enter the name of the file to append [diary.txt]
file_name = input("Enter the name of the file you want to append to: ")
print()

#Enter the user sentence
user_sentence = input("Please enter a sentence: ")
print()

#Append file and write user_sentence
with open(file_name, 'a') as file:
  file.write(user_sentence + "\n")
#Read the file and print contents of the file
with open(file_name, 'r') as file:
      file_contents = file.read()
      print('The contents of', file_name, 'is now:','\n')
      print(file_contents)

Thank you for your assistance !
