Grace Note:  Although there is one more post in the current Editing series, I needed to update the Index as a handout at the two-hour workshop I'm giving at the Moonlight & Magnolias Conference in Atlanta. If any of my blog readers plan to attend, please come by and say, "Hi."

Thanks for stopping by.
