    I used this as a strategy for nested parenthesis when I was writing in school but my teachers always told me to just break things into more sentences. Which was honestly probably the correct move. At this point my favorite method for dealing with this has become footnotes, we need more footnotes in novels and casual reading. The only time I’ve ever seen that done is in The Bartimaeus Sequence by Jonathan Stroud, in which he greatly overuses them, and I absolutely loved it.
