Tawyr Oorthaagryfii, or Tower Orthagraphy, was a simple alternative writing system for English, which Timothy Patrick Snyder and Rebecca Spatz created. It was named for the Bell Tower at Temple University, where the two created the writing system. It was created to make a generally more phonetic form of English, without having accents and extra letters. The only symbols which are not on standard English Keyboards are þ and ð, used for historical purposes connected to Old English, but can also be replaced with the diagraphs th and dh respectively.

Here is the Chart showing the system with the IPA:
