It does save time. I understand the need for the code after seeing some of the junk that turned up in your comments column.<br /><br />Nicole, I bought the print out of Kate's first course and thought it was excellent. Unfortunately, when I got a new computer recently, my folders would not transfer from the old machine. We will have to try again.Mary Jonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406318704822590967.post-71192569890778199702013-01-13T09:11:16.655-08:002013-01-13T09:11:16.655-08:00Nicole, I print on one side.

And in my opinion, you get the same thing if you just buy the course materials a la carte, as it were. I think I'll add your question as one of my FAQs and really explain it there.<br /><br />Mary Jo, I'm sorry about the code problems. Usually there's a refresh button you can click that will give you a new code. I usually just hit that until it gives me something I can actually read. I have zero email and comment spam since I reinstated the code thing. So, I apologize for the hassle.

At least from what I can tell :)<br /><br />With full-length ms I know you're supposed to only do one-sided copies, but with the short stories not exactly sure. <br /><br />Would love to get some opinions on this.<br /><br />Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406318704822590967.post-40490051912195870962013-01-12T13:24:28.030-08:002013-01-12T13:24:28.030-08:00Hi Nicole, I think you will find most of your ques...Hi Nicole, I think you will find most of your questions about WW answered if you look at LINKS on the right side of your screen and click on Woman's World Fiction Guidelines. Kate put that up on her blog some weeks ago. I expect they will tell you one side only, or it may just be understood.<br /><br />It seems that they are always looking for new writers, so good luck to you.<br /><br />Kate, I have tried three times, at least, to get the "code" right.Mary Jonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406318704822590967.post-49649704717027096612013-01-12T01:37:04.752-08:002013-01-12T01:37:04.752-08:00Kate,

I was telling a friend of mine about your website and classes, and we're both interested.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />NicoleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406318704822590967.post-65040699240945420132013-01-11T10:17:45.315-08:002013-01-11T10:17:45.315-08:00I didn't think about the cost of the trip.

But if I had, I'd have figured they worked that out themselves. *shrugs*<br /><br />Don't know if two years of driving a bus would pay for dental school, though. That's got to be a lot of money... Even so, it didn't mess with my suspension of disbelief too much.Kate Willoughbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08923324775303769386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406318704822590967.post-10406005532219525352013-01-10T19:23:53.712-08:002013-01-10T19:23:53.712-08:00I liked the story.

I didn't think the 'boy' was so young she would have to babysit, but I didn't catch on until the end. <br /><br />As a former travel agent I had to wonder about the 'the trip is paid for' element. Shouldn't gram or Janine have offered to refund gram's girlfriend who now can't make the trip? It just didn't seem right to me. <br /><br />WW sure likes grandmas.Jody E.
