Dear writers,
I only just realised that there is no way to insert italics on Webnovel formatting!
My book has been using present tense for thoughts, and past tense in all other parts of the book. On other platforms (e.g. Kindle) and in my drafts, these have been denoted by italics. It must have been confusing for readers, who have no way to differentiate.

How do you format your book so that the thoughts of characters are explicitly different from the rest of the prose? Please share!

@WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL please consider adding italics formatting support to your platform!!!

    To indicate thoughts, I usually use 'insert thought' as compared to "insert dialogue".

    Yoan_Roturier And it only apparently works on the website, not mobile, so it's pretty much useless.

      PGODofficial You can use a variety of ways, but a lot of writers use either [], {}, (), etc to indicate thoughts. Or the standard: "Man, this formatting is tough," she thought.

        Thanks for the question)) I do not like to emphasize keywords because the reader has to find important topics for himself. I often pay attention to social moments in the text. I recently read some cool texts https://eduzaurus.com/free-essay-samples/writers/ about Gender Roles in Girl by Jamaica Kincaid and the author makes a conditional emphasis on this topic. I am a supporter of the usual footnotes in the text that explain a specific event or the meaning of a word. A large number of such words is bad because we can lose the author's thoughts.

          I think this is because it only works on the website.

            That's what I was looking for. I am trying to improve my writing skills and am constantly learning new information on the subject so that I can write my personal statement soon without the help of a personal statement writer I really want to get a job in a large international company but they have strict requirements for applicants, I hope that my quality personal statement impress the admissions committee and increase my chances of getting the job.

              I always try to use different sources to write my dissertation. I hope that through this I learn a lot more and it brings success. I didn’t think that writing a research proposal would be a difficult task for me, but my friends helped out who advised me to turn to a trusted resource https://www.dissertation-service.org/research-proposal-writing-service/, where professionals could briefly and clearly substantiate the topic of my dissertation and it was approved by the committee.Thanks to the work of professionals, I was able to get the biggest advantage over my peers: time. I constantly struggled with time, and this is the main reason I needed help writing proposals. I advise everyone not to waste their time and energy, turn to a reliable resource that has proven its professionalism.
