I always do this ## and then start a new section--can't help it-- it makes it easier for me.
Enjoy your weekend)
Hi Terri -
Ah, with me it's the asterisk key. Instead of 3-5, I might have 11-15!

I still use the asterik method. I'm a creature of habit sometimes. My favorite tip? Just keep swimming, just keep swimming - Dora from Finding Nemo.
Kathy had some great tips. They helped me very much, since it's been quite a long time since I needed that type of lesson.
going to check out her advice although I don't think I'm even ready to pitch yet...
Thanks for the links, Susan! Always helpful:) I use the asterisk for things like that,just got into that habit of using it. :)
Blessings and happy weekend,
Karen
Hi Stephen -
LOL! A good tip - to be sure.

Hi Nancy -
Kathy is a regular on Pixnpens. One of these days, I want to re-read some of her articles. She always has great tips.

It never hurts to be prepared. :)

Hi Karen -
Hmm, the asterisk thing seems to be a common problem. I got into the same habit. :)

Great polishing tips on Pixnpens, Susan, especially the one about sentence spacing. I just finished editing a children's book series filled with inconsistent sentence spaces. My word processing program wouldn't allow me to do a find and replace, so I had to fix all of them manually. Little mistakes like that can be an editing nightmare.
I recently learned how to do a page break. It's saved me from constantly rearranging my chaps!
Perfect timing for me as I make FINAL edits on the FINAL edit page of the galley proofs.
Yep, a new one for me, too.
Plus I'm madly working to meet an 11/15 deadline.
Right now? My secret? CUT CUT CUT!!!
Hi Jean -
Glad the article was beneficial.
It took me forever to retrain myself to leave only one space after a period. Old habits die hard.

Hi Jessica -
Knowing the small details of Word can be a tremendous help. Features like Find/Replace and Word Count saved me huge amounts of time.

Hi Patti -
We're cheering you on! You can get it done. :)

Hi Everyone -
For those who may have wondered, that's Mom's hand in the picture. :)

The "Elevator Pitch" made me laugh and taught me something, as well. Thanks.
Hi Dena -
Great! I'm always happy to hear a link helped someone.
