About: I'm presenting the seminar on writing smarter with Word. Actually, this seminar is about using Word as a desktop publisher, not about how to write.
I'm a personal productivity expert and travel nationally and throughout the Caribbean teaching busy people how to spend less time working but get more done.
I've self-published five business and technology books that sell to the corporate market. I'm also a technology blogger. To bring technology to life, I created a membership Website with screencasts of computer tips, tricks, and strategies.
In my seminar, I'll show you how Word's powerful desktop publishing features make it easy to create a table of contents, cross-references, an index, figure captions, and more...all with Word keeping up as the page numbers change. And every time I need a page to fall on the right side, no problem...Word knows. And when I want different headers and footers for odd and even pages or for different chapters, no problem.
