Jaimie,
Unimaginable, actually!

Wow, that book sounds really good. I just watched The Boy in the Striped Pajamas. Awww, what a horrible thing the Holocast was.

I will keep it short, cuz I know this is steno stuff.

The name of the book I recommend as my best read in a decade is titled "Because of Romek" by David Faber. It is a TRUE story of his life as a young boy captured by the Nazis and his survival through numerous concentrations camps. I was privileged to hear him speak at Calvary Chapel Murrieta as a guest speaker for the high school chapel. He tours the country telling his story of survival so that others would know the truth about the Holocast, a promise he made to his mother after he watched her die..

If he is ever in your area, I highly recommend taking the time to hear him retell this amazing story.

Plan to have a box of Kleenex handy. But then, that may just be an emotional female response. David Faber is one spectacular human being!!

Christine, glad you like the briefs!

Expecting the book you recommended to arrive any day in the mail; ordered it few days back.

Lisa, yes, you are entitled to the Magnum Steno Briefs dictionary. Just e-mail me at rtexcellence@aol.com and I'll send it to you. :)

Mark,
Thanks for adding those briefs. I had made up one for criterion of KRAON (purposeful stack), but I notice now it would be a conflict with "croon." I will make an adjustment. And I really like the others as well. I will add them to my iFlash file. THANKS!!

Hello, I've been lurking here and taking notes. Time to speak up. The past two weeks I have been converting my comma to W-B. It is difficult! A year or so ago I changed the period to P-P, and that was much easier. I almost gave up on the comma last week but pushed forward, and this week it is becoming a little more automatic. I agree that the hardest is getting it down in a series.

A couple questions. I bought the Magnum Steno book last year and didn't receive any kind of CAT dictionary or briefs. Should I have? Am I still eligible for that?

Also, will you be doing any more seminars past July? From August on there aren't any listed? What are your plans for that?

Back to more note-taking!
