ME WITH YOU @ 11:28 pm

Current Mood: energetic
Current Music: 1, 2, 3, 4 by Plain White T's

Here is Kristy Dempsey's ME WITH YOU!




Tucker says that this is a very good book. In fact Tucker thinks you should buy her book, which is MY PUP, that I wrote, and then get this book about the bears because Tucker says bears are very nice to carry, to chew up, and to bark at. But this is a bear book, so she will be a Good Dog and not munch the cover since my friend wrote it!

What a darling book! Yayness and Woot, Woot, and a Tucker Woof to Kristy Dempsy!

I love spring.

I love how the flowers are out,
the sun is warm,
the day is longer,
new books are on the shelf,
and the world is renewed.

I love writing my YA revisions again.
I just love it.

Most of all, I love that I don't think all the hours and hours and hours and days and months and more months of organizing the revisions, and plotting it out, and the arcs of characters and storylines, and weaving the organizing just so. . .most of all I love that I know that is not a waste of time, and therefore did it.

Apple Word help? @ 06:35 pm

Hi,

I have a Macbook, and have Word for Mac.

When I open up a new document, I don't have any scroll bars on the sides where you have the arrows appear at the top and the bottom, and where you can hold the arrow to make the page scroll up or down.

Can someone help me?

Thank you!
