I thought you could see size and bold in Braille.  Am I wrong?  I have a 
problem 
adding words to a book unless as a picture description, but will do what is set 
as a standard if I run across it.

I like Jamie's idea because in braille you can't see the font and you
might just think it's a flashback or a few days or hours later instead
of a chapter.
