It was all Simon's idea

From over on Simon Haynes' blog

Here's the deal: Open your novel or WIP in Word 97 or later and click AutoSummarize. Change the options to 'create a new doc and put the summary there' and '100 words or less', then paste the result into your blog with these instructions.

Hi Simon,

Have you ever heard of the 1970s American show "The Brady Bunch"?
It reminds me of of the famous line as whined by the jealous younger sibling. "Marsha, Marsha, Marsha! that's all anybody ever talks about is Marsha." :)
