No, not to her specifically, to others in general John.
I am just saying that your statement is very broad and might not be
applicable for everyone and might be misleading for some. Right now, if you
don't have the writing tool skills, in this region at least, that's what
comes first. Technology skills come second. If you have the writing tool
skills, then great, then by all means go for the technology.
And for what it is worth, as discussed numerous times on this list, you can
have all the tool skills and tech skills that you want - you still need
fundamental writing skills first. . .
That's all . . . back to writing (w/ my tools :-)
