Haha spelling error! 😊

No, !81812345679 is correct, as otherwise there would be three 8 characters and the idea is that it should be able to be signalled with two sets of plastic digits if plastic digits are being used.

Both of those two PDF documents, and indeed all of the PDF documents of the novel, were produced using Serif PagePlus software.

The chapter of the sequel novel where !81812345679 is introduced is still unpublished I think, but I need to check.

It was sort of meant to be brown earth around the pond, lily pads in the pond, one frog jumps SPLASH.

How about the following.

 

Brown earth of a field

Green lily pads in a pond

A frog jumps in SPLASH!

Yes I found all 81 separate chapters on the web, never thot about concatenating them together?

So what would the graphical representation of this thread look like?

Well, chapters were published as they were written, not always in numerical order, from June 2016 to February 2019/

I got very helpful feedback from several people in the old Serif Lounge as I proceeded.

Not the conventional way to write a novel - write it all first - but I may not have got it finished if I had done that.

That is an interesting concept, I had not thought of that.

I have since written and published the chapter of my second novel in which the origin of !81812345679 is explained.

It is Chapter 48.

It is linked from another thread in the Share your work forum.

Here is a link to that post.
