  • Lisey's Story
    LISEY’S STORY ABOUT THE BOOK IN BRIEF: Lisey Landon is the woman behind bestselling novelist Scott Landon - not that the world knows it. For twenty- five years she has been the light to his dark, and as his wife, she was the only one who saw the truth behind the public face of the famous author - that he was a haunted man whose bestselling novels were based on a terrifying reality. Now Scott is dead, Lisey wants to concentrate on the memories of the man she loved. But the fans and academics have a different idea, determined to pull his dark secrets into the light. IN DETAIL: King has written about writers several times before, but this is the first time he has switched focus to the writer’s wife. This allows him to explore career-long interests in a fascinating new way. As with Jack Torrance in The Shining, it’s not entirely clear whether writing is a ‘healthy’ process for Scott Landon, but it’s undoubtedly a necessary one, allowing him to deal with his disturbing life and unusual way of looking at the world. Scott Landon is a successful author (he’s won the Pulitzer and the National Book Award), and as in Misery he has problems with obsessive fans. This causes trouble in his life (when a fan shoots him), and after his death, as an academic is so desperate to get his hands on Landon’s unpublished work that he takes to threatening Lisey. But Lisey can take of herself. The novel goes on to explores Lisey’s life after Scott’s death, but it is also details the twenty-five years of their relationship, and the family secrets that have bonded the couple together.

  • Guide to Creating an Index for Mcfarland (Please Read Carefully)
    Guide to creating an index for McFarland (Please read carefully) 1. Introduction An index is a vital component of your book—for some readers, especially in a library setting, it will be the first point of entry, and many others will rely on it as they read or consult your book. The purpose of an index is to enable your readers to find specific information quickly. It is not intended to inform, educate, or tell a story. No one reads an index, and readers won’t take the time to puzzle through a complex structure. They want instant, direct access, and for this reason, the simplest indexes are often the most user-friendly. We strongly recommend that you compose your own index rather than hiring a professional indexer. You are the authority on your book and your subject; no one else knows equally well how its topics relate to one another, which are important or how best to phrase them. In addition, the indexing process often turns up small discrepancies in the text that need the author’s judgment to resolve. Do not worry overmuch about the length of your index. It needs to be thorough. If that makes it somewhat lengthy, this is acceptable. The goal is to serve the user. When trying to decide what should be included, put yourself in the mind of the user. If he would expect to find a certain reference in the index, make sure it is there. We prefer that you submit your index in Microsoft Word, but most other word processing programs are fine as well.

  • How to Build a Table of Authorities and Table of Contents in Word
    How to Build A Table of Authorities in Word* By: Morgan Otway Overview: • A Table of Authorities (TOA) is a list of all of the sources cited in a legal document that notes the page numbers on which each source has been cited. • To create a TOA, you must “mark” each of your citations. Once all citations have been “marked,” Microsoft Word will generate a TOA that organizes the sources by category (e.g. cases, statutes, etc.) and alphabetically within each category. • NOTE: Once you “mark” each citation, Word will add hidden characters to that citation to designate that it has been “marked.” Don’t be alarmed by this! You can toggle this ON and OFF by checking and unchecking the ¶ symbol on the Home tab (located on the left-hand side of the toolbar). Instructions: 1. Locate the first citation in your document > highlight the full citation > go to Insert > Index and Tables > Table of Authorities. 2. Click “Mark Citation.” * Although differences should be slight, these instructions were based off of Microsoft Word for Mac 2011. 3. Once you click Mark Citation, the citation should appear in the “Selected text” box (see diagram on the next page). The way that the citation appears in the Selected text box is how it will appear in the TOA, once it has been generated. Therefore, you MUST remove the pincite from the citation in the “Selected text” box in order for the TOA to work properly. 4. From the list of categories, choose the category that describes the authority you’ve selected (e.g.
