Hi Dornetta, The asterisks should be sufficient for both cases. The text will make it obvious whether these asterisks are a change of scene or something written in the diary. As a Braille reader, I believe the fewer words added in brackets, the better. Save those for picture descriptions.

So, I figured that adding the asterisks was suppose to be so but wanted to check here first. So, after I add the asterisks, should I put in brackets, Diary entry or not? There are also other times throughout the book where the scene changes well, I'd rather say that the setting jumps from the main character's work office to the other main female character home office. Shouldn't asterisks go here also? Thanks, Netta "Just because you are blind does not mean you lack vision"-Stevie Wonder
