A font intended to help dyslexics with their reading is getting new attention.  More information at www.dyslexiefont.com.

Victories

Cassie wrote for a whole day, editing five chapters and adding 1,625 words.

Mark wrote 4,000 words in one day.

Ciuin got another A on a paper.  Maybe we should just have her tell us when she doesn’t.

Nick wrote a 5,000 word report for the train spotters.

Dylan sold more books to coworkers.

Education

All writers can benefit from good beta readers.  An interesting essay discusses three types of beta readers and when you want each. Which are you, Generalist, Shredder, or SpaGster, or a combination?  Here’s another take on what makes a good beta reader.
