New Manuscript Format Discovered!

At the risk of being taken out of context, I'll say that the second draft of this book is "done." Like I said before, though, I'm going to go back through the last 250 pages or so and do a continuity read. I'm worried that I've spent so much effort at making the story hang together that my micro stuff may clank a little. So I started the process a half-hour ago. I also need a brief outline: Goal less than six pages. Yipes. I think I dread that part more than I dreaded writing and rewriting.   Ah! I've got it. I'll just rip out my wall, and send my multi-colored stickie storyboard to publishing houses along with any manuscripts I send. I'm sure there's a problem or two associated with it, but consider the benefits. At a minimum, you would think that any editor who received it would be comfortable that I wasn't simultaneously submitting. Have a great day.  What size margins do you use on a stickie?
