alfreda89: 3 foot concrete Medieval style gargoyle with author's hand resting on its head. (Fires of Nuala book cover)
So last October a fellow writer (waves at Pooks!) mentioned www.shinybookreview.com as a reviewing group doing thoughtful reviews on all books, including ebooks. We're talking so serious they won't review books published by their own publishers. So I sent them my books, got a polite thanks, and forgot about it while moving and getting into the swing of job hunting.

Then, earlier this month, I heard from one of the reviewers. She was planning to review FIRES OF NUALA, and wanted to give me a heads up. I was hoping the review was mostly good, as she said she'd read the book more than once to get depth on the world, and planned to read the others.

I didn't expect her to LOVE it. Like in, A+ ?

WOW

"THE FIRES OF NUALA, written in 1988 and reissued** in 2010, is a book that should be in every science fiction library as it is complex, engrossing, interesting, compelling, and outstanding."

Not sure it gets any better than this! Spread the word!

So far three minor problems with Professor Teaches Word 2010. I can't seem to expand the size of the screen when I'm in there (maybe too much going on to adjust the screen?) the color scheme they're using makes it very hard to see the tiny drop-downs for minor launchers, and when I'm at the bottom of the screen and want to close only one document? I move the pointer up to one of the screens to close, and the entire three-panel keeps closing. I suspect this is a WIN 8 thing, of course!

Otherwise, this is a nice intro to a later Word version than what I used with XP.

Why, yes, I am learning a LOT of software programs this month. Be amazed at my versatility!
