Cindy O'Neal has been writing under the name of Mrs. Wizard since 1992. Her personal website, mrswizard.com is a collection of her writing, software reviews, and a celebration of all things Windows and Computers, with a little Mac advice thrown in. Bottom line? If she has played with it, used it or loved it, and it has anything to do with computers, she likes to share it. She has been (and still is) a personal trainer for people who want to make friends with their computers, or special software in a non-threatening, very user friendly way. Her attitude is, if she can do it, you can too! You just need to want to.
She has had a Kindle since the first version was out, embracing the technology with both hands. She couldn't resist the Kindle 2 or the DX and gave the Kindle 1 to her daughter Kelly hoping to "kindle" the same joy of reading in her. It has certainly worked with the latest Melody Carlson Bloomberg series. Mother and daughter both have enjoyed every word and are looking forward to more of Ms Carlson's goodies and that Kindle 1 is hanging in like a champ.
From the Desk of... Mrs. Wizard began as an extension of mrswizard.com, morphed into a personal blog with a computer twist, and now has settled into a way for her to share her experiences and love of the Amazon Kindle. The goal of this blog will be to present you, dear reader with a daily, down and dirty, short and helpful tip or trick for your Kindle. You may not have time (or the inclination) to go through the owners manual, but with a short and sweet something every day in this blog, you will learn a lot. When she learns something new or exciting, she will share it with you, especially the best places she can find to dig for more FREE books and her other favorite resources. Here's hoping you have many wonderful hours with your Kindle!
Warmest Regards,
Mrs. Wizard (aka Cindy O'Neal)
