on behalf of TTS users
I hereby implore writers to stop using a ****** or -------- line to break pages, to hear asteriskasteriskasteriskasterisk or dashdashdashdashdashdash in the middle of reading drives me insane and takes me completely out of the amazing story I am mostly reading with my ears instead of my eyes. So please, please, please think of us, Text to speech users, and use just one symbol when you want to show a longer pause in the text or a change of POV or anything else. Much appreciated!
edit: I'm so happy that some of you are willing to make the effort to be more accessible in your writings!
Page breaks are important and make a difference in reading to feel the pause in the text. Using characters in itself is not the problem, the problem is when you use too many (as long as the page is wide on desktop) or too many different types.
Personally, I think 1-5 is enough!
There are very good examples in the thread if you have any questions.
