News

A study finds that people who read are nicer folks than those who watch a lot of TV.  They don’t prove whether that’s a cause or effect.

Victories

Randy gave a copy of his book to a friend, whose father read it, bought four copies and gave them to his friends.  Randy thinks he’s sold 100 to 125 copies of his book.

Dylan worked on his web site and cleaned it up and some of the stories.

Education

Robbie Blair points out words that may “gum up your text” and be candidates for elimination or change.  Tameri has a longer list of words to reconsider.  Then think about everything you wrote to see if it really adds to the story.  See what to leave out, while still giving the reader what they need with a good flow.

The more you leave out, the more you highlight what you leave in. ~Henry Green
