ME TOO! This one sort of blends a combination of things I do under all my pen names in a way and definitely had me blushing the whole time I wrote it lol!

Wasn't looking to have my life complete, but always enjoy talking about these topics. Thanks for joining the discussion!

@@willisauthor Just being a smarty-pants. Again, interesting connection between the Norse and Frankish cultures.

@@bretthess6376 It's fine ^_^ - you should hear my conspiracy on Greek gods are legacy names for families, like choosing who will carry that name, ambience, and do things in the namesake as if they were said god. I know there were a few cultures that did that... especially with the fact there's a Celtic and Greek version of Apollo that overlaps in interesting ways.

@@willisauthor Not surprising given Indo-European origins, yes?

It made sense to me. Definitely felt plausible....

That's how I felt listening to his little snippet! Had to share!

There's an old image that was passed around where Charlemagne compared himself to King Arthur and a saint or someone. Where history blurs with legend is always interesting 🤔

Apparently Sabine did a few of these. I should revive the rest. But, I found it like passing the baton from one paranormal mythos writer to the next lol!

Hope you enjoy it!

Aww thank you!

The excerpt I read, yes. That's from my novel "Cedric: The Demonic Knight" (by Valerie Willis) which can be found on my website, tiktok shop, or where books are sold. As for making up the heliodromos, no. I stumbled on it researching and thought it deserved to be reintroduced into the world.

@@willisauthor i'll definitely have to read it then!

​@@Blackcoffeeplaylists You can check everything out over at my website www.WillisAuthor.com ❤❤

Lol 😆 Yea, I was half way through my dinner when I saw it and then mind went "cowboy diet pills" lol

BLEGH for sure!

It's wild to see how much medicine in general has evolved through the centuries!

It took me a while to figure this one out and when I did figure this much out... had to share!

At this point it's a strange muscle memory reflex, not necessarily acknowledgment of visually aware of placement? Maybe kinetic movement memorization over actual visually mapping. Without the keys in place I could probably still type, but visually mapping them in the right way breaks my brain.

@@willisauthoryeah the same happens i know how to type without looking but like i forget where some of the keys are this is why i like 60% boards

@@OZZIEBUILDING It's a surreal sensation to me! Glad to know I'm not alone!

I haven't had to do this. My aim is often to educate my clients to follow industry expectations for a more professional representation these days. So, I haven't tried this technique in teh recent version of InDesign (2023 and 2024)

I don't think they will ever intend to make it anymore flexible. It's the idea of forcing publishing industry like to follow Chicago Manual Style.

It took me a long time to figure it out! But I had to share in hopes of helping fellow typesetters!

It seems that I found the answer here: creativepro.com/how-to-split-long-story-into-smaller-pieces-unthreading-middle-story/

@@danielam1992 Yes, I also included in the Video description. I how the script and my video helped out. It took me forever to figure out this solution for several client jobs I had. It seems to be something we've all begged on Adobe's forums to be able to do forever (2017 for sure).

@@willisauthor Ah yes, I completely missed it in the description below. That would have saved me some time. Yes, I don't know how something so basic isn't already included. Imagine having to put the endnotes after each chapter not at the end of the book...nightmare!

@@danielam1992 Doing one of those today T_T. But using this method, I just have to drag and drop the pages behind the split sections/chapters O_o

Oh wow! I've never encountered both. Lately I try to recommend to my customers to go all in with footnotes since Amazon and other ebook vendors prefer them (I've had to redesign books this year due to quality flags or blocked titles for this reason only). My concern for readers in your scenario is this could create a lot of confusion if they are using the same numbering system. They don't know if they should be looking in the back, at the end of chapters, or at the bottom of the page at any given moment. Consistency in layout can go a long way for reading comprehension, immersion, and readability. I strongly would advice the client to choose one and move forward from there. This could even create a flag with a ebook vendor for having both present or perhaps cause bigger XML/HTML5/CSS3 issues when you export a EPUB/MOBI file.

@@willisauthor You are correct in what you say, but the document I am working on is a translation. Footnotes that are not in the original are included in the book in order to explain some terms. So I have to use both styles. I think it is ridiculous that the Adobe software team did not add the "section" option for footnotes to the endnotes. At worst, I convert the endnotes to plain text and reassemble the text fields after the work is done. Thank you for your attention and response. Knowledge increases as it is shared. Stay healthy.

@@aykutkaplan9071 Yikes. Yea, converting breaks it hard... it was one of the ways I was trying to find a solution for the renumbering endnotes, so I know what a mess that makes. Wish I had a solution... but this may be a trail and error occasion. The best of luck tackling this, Aykut! Not an easy job you have before you!

@@willisauthor Thanks Valerie. I hope Adobe fixes this problem with an update.
