Re: I think I fixed it

All right, you have my word-double spacing between paragraphs!

I was starting to get worried that I'd have to go back and edit ALL of my articles! :lol:

Re: I think I fixed it

Okay, fixed it, re-submitted the article...and have one more question, sorry! I submitted a couple of articles for requests, and they had the same spacing as the article I just fixed. They were accepted, but I was under the impression that articles submitted to requests were automatically approved. ...

I think I fixed it

RE: "Fairy Spuds & Dry Land Fish; the Best Wild Foods Available Now"


Sorry, Ed. I didn't even see the semi-colon in my title. I changed it, thanks!

You said I needed to change the spacing in my submission. That's just for the content excerpt, right? Not the entire article?

Thanks!

Re: GAHHH!!! (Sorry, just ranting!)

LOL Barry! I'll never show up in your neck o' the woods! I found a solution to the feral children, anyway-I just put the puppies in the yard, with a bunch of toys. The kids bee-line for the dogs, instead of my front door. This works for me, even though my dogs are now exhausted. The feral adults, on...

Re: GAHHH!!! (Sorry, just ranting!)

Unfortunately, I have to answer the door; I live in an apartment, and it's obvious when I'm home, lol. Well, I suppose I could ignore people, but then I wouldn't be the neighborhood recluse, I'd just be "that rude b***h," lol! Then again, maybe that wouldn't be such a bad thing...hehehehe....

GAHHH!!! (Sorry, just ranting!)

Everything started out so well this morning-I got up, wrote an article, cleaned my house, trained one of the dogs to turn on lights for my son, and then...nothing. I can't really say this is writer's block, though-this is just sheer frustration from having every freak in the neighborhood drop by my ...

Re: Dailies

Hey, I'll join you! God knows, I could use a little kick in the butt every day to get me started!

I submitted two articles yesterday, and managed one for today so far. I'm trying to figure out what else to write for today.

Here's hoping we all get some sales!!!

Re: Catelynn is Walking!

Awww!!! I remember when my little ones first started walking! I was sooo excited! Then my daughter discovered running. Yep, that was when it stopped being cute and started getting scary, lol! Just wait until she discovers that cool thing in the bathroom that makes stuff disappear! :lol: Seriously, i...

Re: I Can't Seem to Focus

Lol @ Amy! I love that idea! I get weird looks anyway, so a few more freaked out strangers is no big deal for me! Barry, I have roughly 200 notebooks in my house right now. One of these days, I swear, I'll organize all this paper into something usable, but until then, I like to go through them once ...

Re: I Can't Seem to Focus

Hear, hear!!! I'm guilty of the same thing-my poor computer is crowded with so many unfinished articles, it's not even funny anymore. Worse, I tend to go for months without submitting anything, even if I finish them! I think it all boils down to being a big chicken for me, though. However...if I abs...

Re: Demand Studios?

Thanks, Deb. I've taken a peek at DS, but haven't made up my mind about it yet. I might try them out just to see what happens, though.

Demand Studios?

I just recieved an invitation from Demand Studios to come write for them, and wondered if anyone else has ever heard of this? I thought you had to sign up or go through an application process at DS; I've NEVER heard of them inviting someone to write for them. Anyone have any mysterious invitations s...

Re: Ed is..

I don't know about you, but I prefer to fix my own errors, too. Sometimes, after re-wording something, I get hit with a bolt of inspiration and end up with a whole new article. If Ed did all the work for me, I wouldn't have the opportunity to improve my work.
