It's a horrid nuisance.<br /><br />AM, you will be pleased to know that, because my story is set in New York, I have indeed been trying to remove those vowels as I go along. I'm afraid that does involve a certain amount of backspacing and correcting, which I'm not supposed to be doing, but I know that if I don't get rid of them now, they'll make it through subsequent edits, as they will look okay to me. Thank you for the light show. It cheers me immensely!<br /><br />Karen, I'll pull you in next year, when you see how my writing has been transformed by the experience. How's that for thinking positive?<br /><br />Thanks, John. I've given the stuffies the day off, because they stayed up so late last night, but they'll be back at my side tomorrow.Sandra Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12052047359365369942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15937405.post-42909870621526798932009-11-01T14:36:10.155-08:002009-11-01T14:36:10.155-08:00Best of luck!

I'll see you when you surface for air, girl! The Happy Lights have been lit at my house today - in support of your effort (and because they lift me spirits).RLM Cooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15218851852114927602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15937405.post-52261351366273070812009-11-01T05:25:25.773-08:002009-11-01T05:25:25.773-08:00Let 'er rip, Sandra.
