Hi everyone, just wanted to share – I’ve finished the Shavian cover for my novel, Blue Are the Hills. The full Shavian transliteration is complete, and it’s almost ready for release (now I’m just doing battle with Scrivener to compile it properly). There are almost no modern novels in Shavian, so I’m looking forward to sharing mine. It’s a literary sci-fi novel about identity, hope, and transhumanism. Only a couple of things left to do and it will be ready. This has been a very fun project! What’s Shavian? I’m glad you asked! It’s an alphabet created by John Kingsley Read [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shavian_alphabet] in response to a challenge by George Bernard Shaw, intended to make a lexicon specifically designed for English, in order to make reading and writing English easier. Here’s more info, including many resources (lexicon, guidelines, fonts): shavian.info [https://shavian.info/]. It’s fun if you’re into linguistics or cryptography at all.
