If WriteNow lets you define how many points of space to use between para-
graphs, another trick when you're in this bind is to steal a little space
from those areas on the page. Usually you can steal enough to get that one
more line of text you absolutely can't do without, and still not notice
that the spaces between paragraphs is a tad bit smaller.
