Some chapters would be multiple pages, other may have been half a page only. But then, after I had all the headings created, I looked at it and I realized that it would be better to group them into 4 big parts, and about six chapters in each part, ans some subsections in each chapter. Now, I'm trying to take the 100+ original headings (ideas) and group them more logically. So yes, using the outline, I have to move some things around 30, 40, 50+ lines. I should have started this as a mindmap... :) L -- Get free public speaking and communication tips by registering at http://www.duperval.com Bring out the speaker in you!
