If this flops you saw nothing lol 
dear fellow episodians!
hi. i’m bored lol. so since no one has done this before, I decided to make a list of useful websites. these are for everyone (writers, artists, readers, editors ect…)
I hope you like it lol 
Tags, bumps and reshares are highly appreciated! The more support this list will get, the more people will see it! 
Since this community is all about helping each other, I’m really glad if I helped anyone passing by. 
If you have a website in mind, please share it with us! The more the merrier! I’ll be sure to add it on the list. 
By the way, this is not official by the episode team. I just gathered up some sites and wrote them down. 
Also, please notify me if there are any broken links, thanks! 
Here’s the list:

LingoJam
This website converts a normal looking text to different types of cool looking fonts. You can use these in your Instagram posts or when creating a topic on the forums.
Note: I highly recommend you not to use these cool looking fonts in your episode story. I don’t think it will work plus it’s probably against the rules. The Episode Team, if you are reading this, please inform us about this. Can we use the cool fonts or not?
Though, you can use these in your Instagram posts or on the forums.
