Extractions: We value your comments. During the early days of my web existence, I toiled and toiled, looking for resources for my writing and editing needs. I had a hard time finding what I needed and an even harder time getting back to that rare site. I said to myself, "If I ever have my own web site, I am going to create just the type of thing that I am looking for; a web site devoted to writers that is jam-packed with resources." Thus, was born, and lo, this page is one of its offspring. *Special note: In the book section, I have placed links to where you can buy them at Amazon.com. I am not an affiliate of theirs and I am not "promoting" their products. I just like knowing where I can purchase something (and Amazon has a great used book store, by the way,lol) and thought you would, too. Same thing goes for any other web site that offers services. I'm not pluggin' the establishment...only the useful link.*smile*
