Hey cryptography enthusiasts, I'm looking for a (relatively easy) cipher to use in the (young adult/teen) book I'm working on. Essentially I'm trying to hide messages (or have hidden dialogue), but it cannot use an alternate font.

For the first draft, I just put everything in Wingdings, but Wingdings isn't compatible with epub (or perhaps, Kindle, idk which and it doesn't really matter). As a result, readers of the ebook wouldn't be able to parttake in the decoding mystery.

Which got me thinking about using a cipher instead, keeping the dialogue in the Latin alphabet. I'm, however, NOT a cryptography person, I don't know even know where to get started, and my book is due....... in a few weeks, so I don't have 6 months to learn. 😭
