Barnaby, like many before him, has been thinking about English spelling and how irregular and unnecessary much of is. On the understanding that big things start small, he is now considering whether to start the revolution by refusing to incorporate unnecessary letters or illogical spelling in any of his future riting.
Hensforth, Barnaby wil only aply the minimum efort to spel
any of his wurds in the customry manor, eschuing convenshun, histry and
tradishon. He estimates that this wil save him aproximately wun per sent of the leters he normaly has to
tipe, with a consekwent saving of wun per sent of the ink and paper used to
print them, thus preserving many trees and conserving natural resorses in
adishun to redusing the number of keystroks he wil need to make and conserving
his own energy.
Of cors, this wil make his books wun per sent shorter, tho
no kwiker to reed.
Fortunately, all of his current books were written before
this revolution began, making life more straightforward for readers used to
dealing with conventional English spelling. Any errors are therefore entirely
unintentional and the fault of the author, except where they have been
introduced intentionally.
Why not try ‘Out of Time’ a full-length
novel about two men whose timelines get inextricably mixed. I can’t guarantee
any misspellings, but you can enjoy searching. You can find it in paperback or
eBook format at Amazon here https://tinyurl.com/BarnabyOutofTime
(Also available at Apple, Smashwords, Kobo etc)
