  • Dictionary
  • Thesaurus

You must own and constantly use a good dictionary and a good thesaurus. I strongly recommend against small "office" ones. I strongly recommend you buy and install the $69 disk "WordGenius" which incorporates The Macquarie Dictionary and the Macquarie Thesaurus. Contact Eurofield in Sydney at 1300 889 978 or website at www.eis.com.au and order online with a credit card.

Fax

I hate faxes. They churn out un-readable pieces of paper. Editors don't appreciate articles submitted by fax because someone has to retype the material, so your article may get tossed out. Today you don't need faxes - you can email from your computer to someone else's fax machine, if you have to. My advice: use email rather than fax. Your comments:
