Hi, everyone, some great news for those of us plagued by those optional hyphens. If you are working in Word, do the following "control H" enter a "shift 6" and a "hyphen" now do an "alt A". all of the optional hyphens will be replaced with nothing! First time I used it in my new submission, "Sword of Ice", coming soon, 1031 replacements instantly, it was so nice You will still have the regular hyphens breaking words between pages to find and fix. Tom Hawkins!
