I'm happy to fix the formatting of any chapters. It is
the writing which is the hard bit, not the formatting.
### Chapter Guidelines
### Chapter and Writing Guide
Grammar and such:
* British English, except when referring common code words like `color` and
`initialize`.
* Prefer pronounless text, but `you` if you must. Never `we` nor `I`.
* Titles and subheadings should be in Title Case.
* References to code (such as function names) should be formatted as \`inline-code`.
* Italics used for emphasis, not necessarily for technical words.
* Full stops and correct punctionation, except for lists without full sentences.
Formatting:
* Do not rely on anything that isn't printable to a physical book.
* Any links must be invisible - ie: if they're removed, then the chapter must
still make sense.
* Table of contents for each chapter with anchor links.
* Add `your turn`s to the end of a chapter when relevant.
* Titles and subheadings should be in Title Case.
