Re: I Have Fallen in with a Very Bad Crowd
I have been worrying about laying it out and so forth-ie with all the pictures.
Then I remembered that for about 3 years when I did appraisals I (essentially) did a Master's Thesis a month and these were very professional looking reports.
Even though I did more Content than Design-it is not totally foreign to me so I feel better about it.
Market research indicates there is really nothing like "The Smoke of Africa" out there.

Got to start sometime. I put the first couple essays into Word this morning. I had forgotten how forgiving Word is compared to the Blog format as you can easily move essays around and so forth within the Document.

I suggest you get the Grammarly app. It will be well worth it.Spock wrote:Got to start sometime. I put the first couple essays into Word this morning. I had forgotten how forgiving Word is compared to the Blog format as you can easily move essays around and so forth within the Document.
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Re: I Have Fallen in with a Very Bad Crowd
It is probably very good, but the "Shoot for the Stars" outdoor publishing company (Safari Press) that I want to try for first (In my mind I am writing for them), wants it in Word as far as I can tell from their submission guidelines after a couple of quick read-throughs.mellytu74 wrote:I concur - I like Grammarly quite a bit.Bob Juch wrote:I suggest you get the Grammarly app. It will be well worth it.Spock wrote:Got to start sometime.

The other night, at Barnes and Noble I gathered names of other outdoor publishing companies but I haven't had a chance to look at their guidelines yet.
