Chapter 0 : About me and my book
Hi my name is Yda and you are about to read my very first book entitled "Wizards Street".
I had already started writing it and published it on another platform which wasn't really secure. That's why I'm starting all over again, and i hope in God i will finish it in perfect safety on this platform .
There's not much to know about me, but there is about my book. So I'll let it transport you into my odd world.
I thought a little reading guide might be useful in case your understanding of punctuation is a little muddled. Here it is:
-Whenever there is no (-) in front of a sentence, it is the narrator of the story who can also be a single actor or actress in my novel in each chapter, and I will specify the narrator at the beginning of your reading in every chapter .
- Whenever the sentence begins with (-), it refers to a person speaking in a dialogue or conversation.
- Whenever the narrator's text ends with a period (.), it means that he or she is the next person to speak in the dialogue or conversation that begins.
- Whenever the narrator's text ends with three dots (...), it means that it is a new person and not the narrator who initiates the conversation or continues it depending on the coherence of the novel.
- In a dialogue, the sentences of the first person initiating the dialogue end with a period (.), and the sentences of the second person in the dialogue end with a double period (..). If a third person is added, his or her sentences end with (...), so you know who is speaking if the names of the interlocutors are not specified throughout the conversation.
- Parenthetical sentences are the thoughts of the respective actors.
- If two people are speaking at the same time, we add times 2 (x2) at the end of the sentence they said together to indicate that they are two speaking simultaneously! If there are more of them, we adapt with (x3), (x4), etc and they all represent a person in the conversation.
-If the narrator tells the story right after being the last person to speak or engage in a conversation, his or her sentence in the conversation ends with (*).
Note that this guide is really optional cause some people said they can do without . But juin case .
I wish you a great reading. I will wait for your critics , good or bad , i am all open and my heart too .
Thank you for having already choosing to discover my book 😊.
