The other day I was being very positive when I wrote Today I Will Send My Book To The Editor. I was hoping by stating what I wanted to happen, the laws of attraction would make it happen. It didn’t quite work out that way.
I use my iPad for everything. I wrote my book on it and write all my blogs on it. I do banking, watch Netflix, play games, go on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter on it. I do all my emailing on it. I avoid using my laptop and for good reason. The laptop I have is Justine’s. She was frustrated with it and now I understand why. It’s user unfriendly. Things pop up but when you go to find them later, they’re gone. Nothing can be saved on the desktop so you must scramble to find things. It’s time consuming and mind boggling. Even my daughter, Candice who is an IT person can’t figure it out.
Needless to say, I’ve been having a few setbacks and haven’t sent my manuscript away yet. Candice is helping me sort through it, one email at at a time. I’ve sent more than 40 in the last day or two. I’m hoping she’ll be able to put it into a PDF so I can send it to the editor either today or tomorrow. Wish us both luck!
You’ll work it out because you are talented that way. And we will wait.

She may be talented, there is no doubt, but she is not the talented ONE…. there are two.

We are each talented in our own (very different) ways.

I also do a lot of things on my Ipad. I put a keyboard case on it which made it so much easier. I was wondering if you use the big almost 13 inch one or the more regular sized one? I bought an Air 2 a year before the new pad came out. I wish you the best. The good thing is you can reformat to the PDF with much hassle, I think. Be well. Hugs

I meant without much hassle…. sorry. I was thinking of how hard it would be to write a whole novel on an Ipad. And then doing the formatting. Hugs

I think it’s easy to write chapters on the iPad. I just saved each one separately which worked here. When I transferred them onto the laptop they seemed to get scrambled up. Im hoping my daughter can compile it without too much trouble.

I have the IPad mini and it’s really light and easy to use. I had the bigger one before but it was heavy.

WOW. My hat is off to you. You must have great eyesight. I have hard enough doing small things like email and tweets. I do most of my blogging on the main computers. Again, I am impressed. Hugs

I took several “Big Brother” breaks to clear my mind. It’s all coming together, thanks to my daughter.
