Lisa was just telling me that she uses the Kindle computer to read our work back to her. She says she catches so much more when she listens. I tend to read our manuscript out loud to myself, but a reader sounds so much less exhausting. <br /><br />I use those all-in-one tab things.

I'd want to rip it out of Victoria's "hands" and say, "no, read it like THIS." Actually, that's kind of what I do when my husband reads my manuscript. (And will he ever read it all, NOT out loud? I'm not sure.)
