My husband is famous for suggesting titles. That is definitely not why I married him :). I think it's better that he stick to what he knows best and I seek assistance elsewhere. Still, gotta love him. He never gives up! One of these days he'll hit a title I will use.<br />Happy writing.Rebecca Forsterhttp://www.rebeccaforster.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14091439.post-85384107076854420852011-01-18T09:24:18.269-08:002011-01-18T09:24:18.269-08:00Kathy: I am so happy that this was helpful.

No matter how much I want to be right at least I'm smart enough to know when I'm not :).<br />Very good luck with all your writing. Would love to have an update on your journey as you go!Rebecca Forsterhttp://www.rebeccaforster.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14091439.post-16183001639271013852011-01-14T08:10:29.527-08:002011-01-14T08:10:29.527-08:00I don't know any author, and that includes me,...I don't know any author, and that includes me, who doesn't need an editor. This article explains exactly why.<br /><br />I've written 8 published novels and edited over 300 published novels, and I still need my wife to edit my books. But that's not why I married her. No, really, it isn't.Michael LaRoccahttp://www.editormichael.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14091439.post-77044601553452203822011-01-14T08:03:42.081-08:002011-01-14T08:03:42.081-08:00Hi Rebecca!
