Before Reading my Story ‘Instructions’

Instructions

By Me Into ImageryPublished about a year ago 1 min read

To show some things like shouting or a character pointing out their words I do different things so thats what I mean by instructions.

First off theirs a map of The Shells House from my The Shells Ancestry story. So the map would have the names of different locations and thats how to tell where a character is. I would put the image with each chapter.

A-A

Putting this - line after a word then another word means that the character stuttered while saying those words.

A-

If a word doesn't come after this line means that the character was interrupted by someone or something and they stopped saying.

Umm…

Dots after or without a word means that the speaker stopped speaking ending the line like unfilled or giving an empty feeling to the sentence it's left unfinished.

Typically!

The ! (Exclamatory mark) means that someone said something in a not shouting, raised voice emotionfully.

TYPICALLY

Capital letters mean that the character is shouting.

TyPiCaLlY

Alternating between small and capital letters means that the character is saying the word in a nonsensical way like the accent of sorts of saying is straight up annoying.

Mit-lark

The nonsensical words which have that line -(Hypen) in them are names of characters or stuff cause they're not based on real names they're just made up random sounds which seemed to sound good.

(Joyfully)

This bracket comes before a character's line not always but a lot enough which tells you something about the situation like how the line is said.

{Serious?}

These bracket mean that the character said this in their mind in words like in narration or in like talking to themselves.

So these were the ten instructions I had been Mit-lark by the way if you didn't notice and Stay Happy and Allah Hafiz!
