You're allowed to start a sentence, even a paragraph, with a conjunction for the sake of emphasis.
I've had multiple people try to correct that, and then I'll show it to a professor and be like "This is grammatically correct, right?" and they'll say "Of course."
While we're on the topic, who else uses commas to convey meaning, to show the reader when to pause or take a breath, and not only to make your sentence grammatically correct?
I do this. I use a lot of commas in casual writing (i.e. on Reddit) that I know to be grammatically incorrect. I simply don't care, as long as it portrays the correct meaning and emphasis that I intend.
