How to make your editor happy – Tip #3

If your editor has bribed her friend Bonnie worked really hard to come up with a super-cool anthology title, and then promoted said anthology all over the place, you might want to get the name of it right when you submit to it.

Just sayin’.

Taking a deep breath

Phew.

It’s been one of those months… and somewhere, I lost a week. Seriously, I looked at my calendar and thought I had three weeks to the end of April, and somehow, there was only two. But my taxes are done, the government’s paid (tho, thanks to this little glitch, they haven’t received my paperwork yet.) But it’s on it’s way, school doesn’t start ’til Monday, and I’m one edit away from being caught up. Yay. (and there’s rumours of a computer-free weekend, but I don’t want to jinx it…)

But, in the midst of all that mysterious calendar reworking (And, if I could figure out how to make an extra week appear in the calendar, I’d do that more often. :) ), I almost missed my big news today!
Today is the start of Brenda Novak’s month-long online auction to benefit diabetes research. She’s organized some really super-cool items up for bid, including… a website design by Elle Media. Yep, you get to help a great cause, and I get to design your website. Isn’t it just what you always wanted? :)

So, go bid your fingers off. Go. I’ll wait. :)
