The Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls is the first school of its kind in South Africa. Only the best students are granted admission. The girls endure a tough application process. Once the girls are selected, the
academy works hard to help them be successful. Each student is given a personal academic counselor. Also, a
counseling unit is available to help graduates of the school learn to manage their time and money once they are
in college. Winfrey has helped with every part of the school's management.

i’m writing a memoir and i’ve been given the great suggestion of placing a ‘sub-narrative’ within some of the chapters – sort of, what was going on with me in the grand scheme of things.

i was wondering how to format this so that it is very obvious we are stepping out the of story.

firstly is a change in font from serif to sans workable? i also use dashes for a scene change. was thinking of using a different scene-changer too.

here’s a (shortened) example:

university – or what’s known as ‘uni’ in australia – were some of the best days of my life. where else do you get to potter around in a great location, have very little responsibility, learn lots of things, do lots of things and walk out four years later with a bonus – a degree!

with my university years i had immersed myself into community of intelligent ambitious people. generally everyone had a confidence about themselves. they knew where they were going in life and weren’t threatened by others.

next normal paragraph continues here…

(sorry couldn’t show the fonts in this comment field)

too much?
