Go to menu Help - Restart in Safe Mode - Factory Settings and Reset.
Why this? Because your LibreOffice 7 installation could have a bad profile, so,
wehn restarting in Factory Settings is just like your computer see for the
first time a LibreOffice instalation and everything should be fine.

I need an info from you if this solved your problem.

Thank you for your review and direction.

I restarted Writer in the safe mode and that apparently worked, but when I then
closed down LibreOffice and restarted in normal mode it still had the same
problem.

I am running build
gerrit.libreoffice.org / core / 7cbcfc562f6eb6708b5ff7d7397325de9e764452
after clicking on the document open help and build number.

Attempted to do a screenshot:

The bold / italic text is where the problem exists.

I also found a similar problem in a different section of the text but with the
same problem:

When I remove the bold / italic setting the problem disappears.

Yes, I am using English (USA).

I have been using LibreOffice since it first came out, however many years that
may be.  This was an upgrade as indicated by LibreOffice.

I hope this helps.

I had to forward this because when I first hit Send, I got an error message
saying the address could not be found.

Go to Tools -> Options -> View -> Is Force Skia Software Rendering checked? If
not, please check it & press OK and restart.. 
Open the file again, is the issue still present?

If this is still the case, please save the relevant part (as shown in
screenshot) and add it as attachment.

Dennis: you must respond on the bugtracker by using
https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136674# for this
bugtracker, not by trying to respond directly to the author of the comment.

The closing quote U+2019 showing is not from the DejavuSans of the rest of the
"Diane's POV:" string.   And, since default autocorrect handling is to
substituted  U+0027 with closing U+2019 unclear what is set for the single
quote autocorrect.

Have a look at Tools --> AutoCorrect --> AutoCorrect Options on the 'Localized
Options' tab.  What is set for the Single Quotes?  And, if you uncheck the
'Replace' box--what happens on the document canvas?
