Greetings! One of the things I’ve been trying out is reworking a piece of text into a completely different style. A full exposition and explanation are given here: For today’s experiment I used my (patent-pending) interdimensional travelator (which I invented last weekend). It had the effect of reversing the letter order in all the words.
Haha, I really like this. It reminds me of that Red Dwarf episode where they go to the place where everything is happening in reverse. They find themselves in nodnoL.
I find it interesting that although you have reversed your words you haven't reversed their order. Were you tempted to begin 'Koob ym fo %17 rehtruf a.....'? Sorry, I'll stop there, because 🤯
I prefer your October 8 reversed order story. It had a true sense and purpose to it. In fact, I often look at a story I have completed, and then scramble the paragraphs around to place the ending at the front. Starting a story at the end, I find, can be an irresistible hook for fiction. Interesting excercise, Terry. I always look forward to seeing what you come up with. How many more of these revisions could you possibly devise. M'Lord?
This was hilarious Terry! Unfortunately, I don't have the ability to read backwards. It was fun looking at it though. 🤣

Also, koob! That's a cool word.
This would be a great technique for writing spy language. . . . . might give a decoder a run for its money, even at Bletchley Park
My wiring has bust, Terry. Too much for its little powerboard.
Rather handy technique though if one wanted alien speech for something like Hitchhiker's Guide...
I'm feeling pretty deconked myself, Terry!
