Description:
Microsoft Word for Writers This online workshop focuses on teaching you the
aspects of the Word program that are most useful for fiction writers, and
the subjects presented will help you streamline your on-screen tasks so you
can think more about your story and less about what the computer is doing
(or not doing). Included in this workshop will be lectures on proper
manuscript formatting, creating headers/footers, working with page numbers,
creating a pre-formatted manuscript template that can be used on all your
new book projects, customizing the toolbars, understanding and customizing
the Auto-Correct feature, using the Work menu, formatting the query letter,
creating a template for the query, printing envelopes, printing labels for
SASEs, and backing up your computer files. NOTE: This workshop is designed
for BOTH Macintosh and PC users, and has been written for versions of Word
from '97 to 2008.
