Give your props that extra flair with writing that no one but you can decipher!

Your ABC's

Start by writing the alphabet. You can decide whether you want to do uppercase, lower case, or a mixture of both letters, It all depends on what you want.

Distorting the Letters

Draw lines through the letters. You can have the same line through each letter, or mix them up, but make sure you only have one line through each letter.

Then take one half of each letter and turn it backwards.

Repeat with the entire alphabet.

You may do this a many times as you like for variety or until you are satisfied with each letter.

Add Unnecessary Lines and Dots

Dots and lines add a layer of simulated complication to the writing, and basically makes it more fun to look at.

Try writing song lyrics, or your favorite poem using your new written language!
