The story of how I came across this book and why I bought it is weird. I have been off and on writing a novel where the main character has Disassociative Identity Disorder, but after a paranormal event his alternate entities become physical beings, henceforth I was hoping if there was a way to have each Identity addressed as a different font as well as color. I asked Google if that was feasible, and this book popped up thus when o was able to afford it, I got it.

Its areally well made book

This book mark helps you understand the colored ink

So you can see here the ink goes from black to green

The edition comes with a glossary. One of the terms used in the first chapter was "Blue Gum" and when the glossary explained what it meant, I was like "what the fuck!"

Writer's Reference Center - blue-gum. https://share.google/nMvCi8UhWq4FdJn5H

Very cool. The print color difference is pretty subtle in the picture (at least in my phone). Is the change at “Caddy uncaught me…”?

That's the thing some of the color shifts are very noticeable and some of them you have to look carefully and that's why there's a bookmark that has a guide on it
