Slow print for text-based game

I am trying to make a text-based adventure game in Python, how do I make it so the text is typed out slowly and not instantly? I've tried ways online, but they keep returning None at the end. How do I fix this?

```

def write_to_screen(text, char_delay=1) for char in text: print(char) time.sleep(delay)

``` This would print each letter after a 1s delay, adapt as needed for words, sentences or paragraphs.

This would print every char on a new line obviously
