Help Me!!!

Ok...I need help. Sybil, if you're reading...please help me because I noticed you're incredible at this whole blog thing. How would I go about inserting excerpts or links into my posts...for example, I have an upcoming post on Nicola Cornick's THE EARL'S PRIZE and want to highlight the name, so readers may be taken to the website containing the excerpt or book cover...how do I do that? Thanks in advance

When you start creating a new post there's a little tab at the top of the screen. You can either click on Edit HTML or Compose. If you choose the Edit HTML tab there will be a toolbar at the top of your post.

It'll look like this: http://help.blogger.com/bin/answer.py?answer=84&topic=18

To insert a link, click on the little green icon that I think looks like a frog.

To insert an excerpt, click on the " icon.

If you want to insert a picture (I.E. a bookcover) you click on the little icon that looks like a picture and upload it from there.

If you need more help, ask someone else, because while I know HOW, explaining it doesn't seem to work for me..ha ha ha

Good luck!

Everyone...for some reason I tried what you said Holly but it didn't come out right, so I went to blogger and got instructions from them.
Kristie, I couldn't find the e-mail with instructions...
Sybil, why do you call yourself redwyne now?

sybil said...

LOL redwyne is my email and has been forever and ever.

And right now I have shit going on with exemployer and even though I can't imagine they couldn't find the blog under redwyne since exboss has known me forever I just got tired of the 15 hits a day googling my name.

I will prolly change it back soon just cuz I like my name ;). And hell I use it on AAR so whatever. And the whole, I am right regarding exwork and really could careless if the sit there reading my blog.
