Back to basics: Consider buying a box of #10 envelopes. They fit inside a standard business envelope (#10) without folding. A folded SASE adds more thickness than a folded letter in a flat SASE. This sometimes causes envelopes to get caught in automated machinery. This is a good addition to your "tool box" for queries and SASE.

Computer aid!?!

In Microsoft word, look in the lower left - in the gray areas above the "start" button. While it won't be exact, you should see something like this: (pic in Emachine my pics)

(I added the red so you could see it easier)

Right above the "start" button it shows you what page your cursor is on (Page 1).

Moving right, it shows what section you are in. If all goes right, you should always be in section 1.

The third notation (working left to right) on that line shows you again what page your cursor is on, then a forward slash and the number of pages in the file. In this instance it is page 1 of 21 (1/21).

In the above example, you should see a dotted line 4 text lines from the bottom of the screen (above the red line). This demarks the page break in this type of page view.
