I've had three books published and I write often - but my wife calls it all boring before she reads any of it! I love her unconditionally but she'd rather spend a month reading the whole "Twilight" series 3 times in a row before she picks up one of my books (and I have boxfulls).
Thank God that your wife takes an interest - it is a tremendous boost to anyone's spirit to have someone they love and care about take an interest in... Show more
It's a good book, I learned a bit from it. However, for my husband, it would be "How I survived my wife's writing" However I pretty muchly do my own spell checking and punctuation checking... although I have never been good at punctuation.

Thank you Rabenbruder. This book is part of a work we have in progess about writing and editing. We submitted fifteen pages for critiquing at the Jackson Hole writers conference and Kathrine Sands, an agent from NY, liked it. She asked us to work it into an article first. We did and that's as far as it went. Not unusual for New York. I have been using it as part of my bio and one day hope to finish the book as a writing/editing guide.
Spelling still haunts me as Marian is always picking up the odd mistake now and then on stuff I post on the internet before she sees it.
Hope another good read comes your way, Ed ;-)
