Jim (Gym) is a story weaved by 390 pairs of homophones, words that sound the same but are spelt differently. It starts at night with our hero Jim, a knight and heir to the throne of Wales being thrown through the air to Whales.
Jim (gym), knight/night, heir/air, throne/thrown and Wales/Whales are all homophones. The homophones are in bold type and there is an index of those used in the story at the end. It is important to get the correct spelling as mistakes will be missed by a computer's spellcheck.
Jim (Gym) is a vividly exciting adventure that has not been without its critics. In the words of a barrister, "Barista' a homophone, surely not! There must be a case I can cite. Perhaps I can make a claim."
Barrister/barista', not/knot, there/their, be/bee, a/eh?, I/eye, cite/sight and
a claim/acclaim are all homophones.
Untangle these thorny bedfellows, grasp the nettle and get to know them as you follow Jim's quest to slay king Hugh!
