OK, I deleted the old file because I'd made so many changes, and nobody had commented on it anyway.

    Hope the comments help! I’m still slightly unsure if it’s aimed at ELT or all, though. If it’s ELT, I really liked the parts where you give specific phrases. Lovely!

    Kate Cory-Wright I agree it would be useful for native speakers as well... if anyone would bother to buy it! But the stuff about a bilingual page, etc., would then have to be removed, and native speakers don't need to know how to say Happy Birthday. But I could do a revised version for general netiquette... some other time... lol.

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone! Here are my cover samples. You can vote for the upper part and the lower part separately - I can combine the top of one sample with the bottom of another one. Also, notice the use of hashtags on the cover - what do you think? And one more thing - do you prefer capital letter(s) or lowercase in "stray stories" (which is the title of the whole series). First letter capital, all capitals, all lowercase? Thank you!

Hi everyone, just catching up with watching the recording of the first webinar session and I have a couple of questions/requests: – I can't find the link to the sample book Dorothy mentions (50 Ways to Practice Writing). Probably being oblivious, but I have looked up and down the posts here. Can anyone help? – I would be grateful for any extra resources to help get to grips with Styles in Word (I'm working using Word for Mac) Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to give!

Thank you for all your comments on my first cover samples.

Thank you for all your comments on my first cover samples. I've taken your suggestions into consideration and here is round #2 :) I've played with fonts, letter colors, hashtags/no hashtags (no hashtags on most covers), header (stray stories) with first letters capitals / all capitals / no capitals (I don't really like Stray Stories with two capital letters S because of the bad connotation. For the same reason, for example, I don't like to refer to students as SS...), various options with my and my daughter's names. What do you think now? P.S. Enjoy the live session, guys! I wish I could join you, but 6 a.m. (Greek time) is really too difficult for me...
