Around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around and around. Pretty cool huh. Emphasis <i>and</i> wordcount! I feel so much better prepared for this now. I will treaure this advice and implement all of it in my novel.
