So how does this work? If someone reads someone else's work, do they return some comments? Or is it better to mark up the document with comments?
Let him do his thing, and then you get him out. No messing with him for laughs.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I think, for now I'll send out pdfs or .docs, whichever is easiest for readers - and you can send back comments whichever way is easiest. Since this is my first time doing this in a long long while, I'm hoping I don't overburden/underinform/and generally don't annoy.

Is it still possible to buy Word for the Mac by itself? (i.e. not Office for the Mac.)

There's also the single version which is a little less.
That first one was the Family Pack which is 3 licenses instead of one.

That Dropbox looks cool, because I can never remember if the latest version is on my flashdrive or my work computer or the desk computer . . .
I write in Notepad, mostly, sometimes popping the piece into Word to look for typos. I like just having a .txt format that can go anywhere. If I delete something large that I might want to keep, I'll cut it and put it into a file, but otherwise I just remove it completely.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

They seem too bad to be true, but they're really not. I wish I had kept a file of letters I got over the years. My favorite was the one sent with a gallon-size ziplock bag full of scraps of paper, each with a separate sentence on it.
