Like I said, it's not cut and dry.<BR/>(I do hope to participate next time. I just started a new gig, so I have less time).<BR/><BR/>Jennifer, I'm a big supporter of the no-rules school and think that whatever works for you is the rule.<BR/>And you know what they say, practice makes better, so it stands to reason we get better with time, don't it? ;)<BR/><BR/>Benjamin, anything to help :)Mellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17461471128865537538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12725467.post-1150382398578463092006-06-15T10:39:00.000-04:002006-06-15T10:39:00.000-04:00Melly, I think I'll be doing my novel editing that...Melly, I think I'll be doing my novel editing that way -- when I finish one ;)<BR/><BR/>Thanks for plugging Tastes of the Darkness.

When I see a problem, I tend to fix it on the spot whether it be a spelling error or a plot hole. My memory is too bad for to put things like that off. I try to keep notes to refer to when checking for consistency. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for plugging Tastes of the Darkness, btw. I hope that you are participate next time!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
