Stuff to make you better at chess

I made the website so I get to put this section in here.

First I would like to provide a link to a copy of a section of advice compiled from the many books I have written about chess.  This can be interesting and also very instructive.  I compiled most of this advice when I was trying to help some members of my team get ready to compete in the U1200 section at nationals so most of the advice is for players between 800 and 1400. 

One of the things I often do when I read important chess books is to make a list of all the ideas and advice in the book so that I don't ever have to read it again and I can help other people out.  I have put some of these outlines up here.  You should still read the books, though.  I didn't really edit these at all from when I made them so they may be helpful or they may not.
