"March 30th marks the date when Facebook will roll out its new Timeline format for everyone. I spent most of today trying to understand the new format and setup my Facebook sites so March 30th does come as a surprise or disappointment. After March…"

"Hi Joanne, It's a matter of just persevering, which you have done. The frustration I can understand, having been down that same path and seeing the formatting change even though I knew I had it right because I bought an instruction manual on…"

Liz Carmichael commented on the blog post 'Everyone needs an editor!'
"Could not agree more. I am both a writer and an editor, and the both sides of me are shocked by the many slips made during rewrites and edits. Putting the MS away for six months works for me most of the time for finding typos - but - having someone…"

"Hi Stephanie,   Currently I'm seeking reviews from those who enjoy the genre, but that can be a slow process.   After much research it looks to me that we new authors have to keep our prices as low as possible - $0.99c - $1.99 to get…"
