I am using the Speak command on Word to find my mistakes.
You can go here to one of my other posts that tells you how to put the Speak command on your toolbar if it isn't already there.
I thought this manuscript was ready to go. But, I am finding awkward sentences in my manuscript using this tool . . . plus a few other mistakes.
A few weeks ago I sent out a couple of stories to a children's magazine. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I will get at least one of them accepted. I had never submitted to a magazine before. So this is a first for me.
Anyone else out there polishing up a manuscript for submission?
Do you have any writing goals for the new year?
One of my goals is to try and send out more manuscripts . . . and to keep improving my writing skills.
We need to think big . . .
and keep climbing the steps to reach our writing goals!
Happy Writing!
