Great Little Last-Minute Editing Tips for Writers: The Ultimate Frugal Reference Guide for Avoiding Word Trippers and Crafting Gatekeeper-Perfect Copy, Howard-Johnson Carolyn
Carolyn Howard-Johnson picks the trip-you-up words that her clients struggle with and puts them in a quick reference guide light enough and small enough to be used as an quickie gift that the recipient can tuck into a glove compartment or purse to keep their homonym skills fresh and explains why following grammar rules assiduously isn't always the best choice for writers.

Now there is no need to take expensive, time-consuming classes or spend hours reading a tome to find the voice and format that will propel an author's idea from a dream to reality. This slim book and thirty minutes will do it.
Randy Eller, speaker and CEO of Eller Enterprises, says, "There is only one thing you need to learn from Carolyn Howard-Johnson to succeed...everything she says "

Howard-Johnson's bulleted lists are superior. They are easy to understand, easy to implement, and even easier to read. She means it when she says thirty minutes or less.

This booklet is the result of multi award-winning author Carolyn Howard-Johnson's extensive work with clients who hate writing book proposals and hate learning how to write them even more. She found herself coaching them through the process rather than doing it for them, for who could possibly recreate the passion an author feels for his or her own book better than the author? In doing so, she found she had written a booklet--not a tome--that took her clients only about thirty minutes to absorb. Voila The Great First Impression Book Proposal was born.

Losing a loved one is difficult for most, and almost impossible to bear at times for others. Knowing exactly what to do is a sensitive subject for many to discuss. In my many decades of counseling and assisting people who lose loved ones, I have learned some strategies over the years that can help us as our loved one transitions into the next life. When a loved one is going through the stages of death, it is hard to know what they are thinking or feeling, especially if their mental state is impaired. This book is not only a guide for those left behind, but to share with friends, families, neighbors, and colleagues and all who will have need of this information at some point. The Gift Of Presence provides 101 things you can do during this period. The ideas in this book can save you from the headache and heartache of this transition period, and help you negotiate the waters that everyone must sail through by giving you active involvement in the process of saying goodbye.

Why can't Grandma and Grandpa remember things anymore?
What is wrong with Grandma and Grandpa?
Children understand far more than adults often give them credit for. They are observers. They recognize changes. When the people they love begin behaving differently, often, children are the first to notice.
That's when adults should step in and answer their questions, listen to their concerns, provide guidelines, and help them brainstorm ways to help those suffering from dementia or its most common cause-Alzheimer's.
Written in a children's story format, Sometimes Grandma and Grandpa Forget, provides the perfect platform for parents to begin a much-needed conversation and help ease children's worries. Starting from a place of knowledge will empower them to continue to love, assist where possible, and understand that dementia is a disease that affects people; it shouldn't define them.
