It's definitely not just a piece just for beginning authors! I am a career journalist and editor, finishing my fourth novel, and I found many great reminders and new ideas to mull over. Kudos

Thanks, Samuel. Figure it's a handy piece for me to have around. So I can point people in its direction instead of trying to organise thoughts on the spot. :D
