Designers Toolbox: Proof Reading Marks. Many of these are obsolete in this era of computers, but I still use the marks for delete, new paragraph, comma insertion, transpose, and change to lowercase.
Mykala was nice enough to frame some of my photographs and hang them in her apartment.
Dan, of Dan’s Data (naturally), wrote a really informative article, called The Great Apathetic Revolution.
