Readers Guide

This website is limited, and so the original format and effects have been removed here. Some things may not make sense because of this. However, I've added subtle alternatives to replace these. THIS IS JUST A READER'S GUIDE. IF YOU WANT TO READ THE FIRST CHAPTER, CLICK NEXT CHAPTER OR NAVIGATE TO IT ON OUR NOVEL PROFILE

Stylistic writing

This book doesn’t stick to all the rules of writing and creates its own forms of punctuation based on what’s most appropriate. Therefore, it may be hard to understand what some things mean, especially if you are reading this aloud (for some reason – not made for that).

……………………………… = Ghostly tone

- (dashes at the end of punctuation) = Abrupt cutting off

[GLITCHED] Glitched crossed-out-text= Don’t ignore reading. For clarity of what the word should be in a normal scenario, before the replaced word in the new scenario, which may not make sense grammatically (intentional). But if you’re reading aloud, then it should be shaky - just say the word, then “no” or emphasise the next word as if you’re correcting yourself (up to you).

:D (emoticons) = Just stylistic expressions for emotion, not a word. If you’re reading aloud, just exaggerate that expression.

7#o,9[;’[22#-5p][18-9#19-,[8p@, (spam) = (OPTIONAL) Gibberish. A lot have secret messages hidden inside, so it’s optional to ignore or not. But if they’re in between actual words, then you have to take the words out of that gibberish (don’t worry, it’s only sometimes). But if you choose to speak it (??why??), then just splur gibberish.

Made-up words = The meanings should be obvious. Just assume.

sdrow desreveR (Reversed words ) = (OPTIONAL) A lot of words that sound like gibberish are usually reversed or scrambled with secret words, so try to unreverse them or unscramble them! And if speaking, just say the word how it sounds.

Repeating words. Repeating words. Repeating words. Repeating words. Repeating words. = Don’t need to say or read it all. Just say or read some. No secret messages are hidden in them.

_____ _____ (blank words) = Missing, filtered words. If speaking, just cut it out or say “blank” (whatever you want).
