She has a talent for using the short story format to develop vivid characters and tightly knit stories. In addition she has a wide range and depth of understanding people and the human condition."

Make Your Own WEB PAGE! A Guide for Kids by Ted Pedersen and Francis Moss

And don't be fooled because the book is written for kids. The best books in the world are written for kids! They're a primary source of clear information when you need to write about something you've never heard of before. Make Your Own WEB PAGE! teaches the essential elements of HTML, adding tables, background colors and pictures, inserting hyperlinks, launching your website and promoting your website so you'll have visitors.

Grant Writing for Dummies® by Bev Browning.
I've always hated the concept of the Dummies series. What more insulting title could an author/publisher come up with, after all? We go to great lengths to teach our children that no one's a dummy, and then as adults, we're slapped in the face at the bookstore or online by this ubiquitous series. But recently, Hungry Minds™ (Dummies series now sold to John Wiley & Sons) seems to have heightened the emphasis on the front cover that the books are "A Reference for the Rest of Us!" Smart move. In this case, if you've ever wondered what it takes to write a grant for a non-profit organization, or why some organizations seem to get funding for the silliest projects, while deserving projects wither on the vine for lack of support, this book will lay it all out for you. Whether you're a first time grant writer or a veteran, it explains the critical components to include, as well as what you should never do. Check out Grant Writing for Dummies. An increasing number of technical writers are reinventing themselves as grant writing consultants, since a great deal of the work can be done at a home office.
