Writing Practice Prescription

This morning’s work started where last evening’s work left off. I recently created a slide presentation in Keynote on my iMac computer. When it came time to export the presentation to Powerpoint so that I could show it on a PC computer, I could not successfully export the presentation to Powerpoint in MS Office.

This morning, while struggling with the same problem, I remembered to visit the discussion groups on the Apple websites. Sure enough, I was not the only user having this problem. After reading through a number of exchanges, I found an easy fix. (Delete all notes made in Keynote.) After doing this, voila. The export went through without a hitch. So simple.

This reminded me, once again of the power of forums and discussion groups where participants help each other.

So if you are a writer, please share your tricks and tips with the other writers in your groups. To see an example of writers and speakers helping each other in this manner, visit SpeakerNet News.
