On the
birth of Jesus and the inner workings of the Spirit World,
click
Unto
Us
by
Sharon Lindsay and check it out at Amazon. This is a very moving commentary on the early life of Jesus. You'll feel like you were there!
For
exposure to a different culture, click
"Silent
Ears,
Silent Heart: A Deaf Man's Journey Through Two Worlds"
and
scroll down reading in the center column.
Most people don't understand the challenges of being deaf, and this
enjoyable read will help us all understand them. Maybe we'll even
become a little more deaf-friendly!
"The
Collegians"
to check out its author, Ninni Lemus. Her books expose you to life in
Ethiopia in the late 1950's and early '60's. It's a look into a world
few have ever experienced.
If
you have a reading group for the very young, 2nd grade and under, you
might be interested in clicking Loonie
Balloonie: the story of a young ghost.
It isn't illustrated, so you'll need your own supplemental material for
visual aids, but the story is fun and cute and the response of your
little ones might make it worthwhile.

Protect Yourself!
Let a proofreader and copyeditor (also spelled copy editor) catch image-diminishing mistakes in your on-line or off-line documents and manuscripts before business associates, clients, potential clients, or even casual readers see them.
Use your computer to proofread your copy?
Your
word processor may have a "spelling checker," but only a
proofreader/copyeditor can detect when you have used peel instead of
peal, weakly instead of weekly, or (the dreaded) their instead of
they're. And, unlike your software's "grammar checker," a copyeditor
will make only necessary changes in a manner that makes them easy
to accept or reject, instead of just pointing out what MAY be an error
or suggesting some inane change for something that isn't wrong.
Don't think
you need a copyeditor? It won't cost you anything to find out. Try a
free proofreading and copyediting consult from an experienced
affordable professional, and see. I'll help you write better, decrease
your embarrassment, and reach your goals.
But
that's not the best news. As I edit, you will become aware of many of
your writing weaknesses. If you don't readily see why I changed
something, you can ask me why I made the change. Through this
tutorial method, you can learn the rules and become so proficient that
you will only need me to take "A Last Look" at your projects. At
that point there will be so few revisions that your cost will be
minimal.
AFFORDABLE!
You need help, but your helper needs to buy groceries too! I charge only $18.00/hour--not
an outrageous wage--to help you. Beside instructing you so
that over time you do more of the editing and I do less, I save you
money by not charging the $25 - $75 per hour that other proofreaders
and copyeditors charge. That means, if you need full services, I can
provide them at one of the most reasonable rates in the industry.
You won't pay nearly as much for proofreading and copyediting as
you could lose in profits or prestige if you don't engage writing
assistance. It is a common fallacy that Americans don't notice
writing errors, but they do. Having been a full-time RVer for the
past 10 years, I have many friends from many walks of life, and most of
them pick up on writing errors and political or commercial
"stupid-speak" without any help from me.
And don't forget, if English is your second language, you are at
higher risk for writing mistakes that could cost you dearly in terms of
your writing goals. Let a proofreader and/or copyeditor eliminate this problem for you!
