Customer Rating:      Summary: Pete, you need this book! Comment: If any of you have just started teeline you need this book! i'm always trying to write out copy from the newspapers and often get stuck on complicated words. i just turn to this little gold mine and there it is!! plus, if you know your theory, which you should do if you've been at it a couple of months, then you understand why you went wrong. It is a teeline dictionary, you look for the word and the s/hand version is there, and if its not, a variation of it will be and you can easily figure out the rest. GET IT NOW!!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Essential Comment: While learning Teeline I found this book essential. It should be called Teeline 'Dictionary' as that's what it is really. Each word has its Teeline transcription and some have a short form like 'arrange', 'representative' or 'important'. I think I'll still be using it even in a few years' time for reference.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This is essential bed-time reading Comment: This was my first encounter with the work of Mavis Smith and Anne Tilly and it will not be my last. The words they have chosen and the clever manner in which they are laid out borders on the poetic. Many of the outlines are simply breathtaking. Their interpretation of the word 'luxury' is so brilliantly avant garde it defies belief. As outline designers they are gurus in a market renowned for its high levels of gangsters and charlatans. If you are new to the scripting craft then you will find yourself gripping this book as if your very life depended on it. The legendary shorthand lecturer of this era, Anne Forgrave, described this book as, "very useful." What more can I say? Hacks of the world ignore this book at your peril
