Dorner takes you through "written phone calls" (e-mail), including how to use it to submit work to publishers, conduct interviews and write collaboratively. As well as providing sections on virtual communities, electronic imprints, new writing opportunities and internet publishing possibilities, she also offers sensible advice about retrieving from the World Wide Web the sort of information you, as a writer, are likely to need. And most useful of all is the comprehensive list of writing-related Web site addresses.
All good teachers are adept at finding familiar avenues through which to explain the unfamiliar and Dorner, with her incisive prose style, is certainly one of them. "The World Wide Web is the nerve centre of the Internet," she writes, and "computer-speak will never be as rich a source of vocabulary as war or religion or sport but it will be interesting to watch developments". How ironic that this immensely detailed but unusually readable book is just that--a book. Bibliophiles can smile: even as the subject matter is rapidly changing technology, we still turn to an artefact for information. --Susan Elkin

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
