News, updates, and more
Check out our new Reading Material page! It’s now easier than ever to practice your reading by enjoying some of Aesop’s fables written in the abbreviated style by Callendar or “The Cask of Amontillado” written in the full style by Jeremy. (You’ll also find the page in the Resources list in the menu at the top of every page.)
Check out our new dictionary! It features a notation to represent even abbreviated Orthic in ASCII, so you can search for an outline in order to get the longhand English text.
Helping fellow writers master Orthic’s shortcuts just got easier: The Manual now sports links for each brief, ending, and joining. The Supplement too now has links to each brief. (It already had links for its endings and beginnings, since they made it to the table of contents.)
Callendar advises practicing with double-ruled paper to start in “The Two Sizes of Character”. Now you can print your own! Download the template here.
