SB> Nope! It's very difficult to find native american books here, except
SB> for those by people with wierd names who don't know what they're

SB> about them.
The bookstore I could rely on to do that for me has gone out of business.
:-( Now I have to find a new "personal-service" bookstore.
JC> SB> poem. If I don't like anything about the poem, I won't critique it.
SB> misspelled word, or missed comma, either. I'm talking about lots of
SB> misspelled words. No editor is going to bother wading through an
SB> unreadable manuscript. No writer who is an absolutely atrocious
SB> speller or grammarian is ever going to get published.
With computer programs with spell checkers that shouldn't be a problem.
Although I don't normally run e-mail through a spell checker, if I was
going to write a poem or an essay, I certainly would.
SB> I've even been known to yell at child poets on this one.
Ooo... Suppressing a child's 'creative juices', eh? That will even get
some _adults_ mad at you!
