Hey guys -- I got a private request recently to revise some copy. I was working on the copy and had a lot of questions about what exactly he wanted done, so I sent the client an edited version of his copy with questions in the text, but, not thinking, I pasted it into a message to the client and sen...

I forgot about the Canada Day connection between this site and the holiday! Though I'm in Missouri, I always remember Canada Day ... it's our wedding anniversary. :mrgreen: I'll sit tight. Now that I know what's going on, I feel better. These guys have always been prompt. I'm just waiting for the Pa...

Hey Karbyn, what's the ABC sign? Always Be Cool?

Hey Jadedragon -- Let me get through this busy time first and then I'll write more! (Actually my payout was more than $5, but I didn't want to blurt out any actual figures. Next time I'll say "a million dollars!!" Maybe that'll kick 'em into gear to give me my payout. 8) Give me some of th...

I checked my account settings and they were already set to bi-monthly payments. But apparently my article sold on 6/15, so that might have been after the cut-off date. What a deal! Oh well, maybe the payment will drop here before the 1st! (fingers crossed)

Thanks!

Melinda.

Hey folks --

Does anybody know when our payments are due to be transferred into PayPal? I've had a couple of bucks (more than $5) sitting in my account for over two weeks, making faces at me because I can't get my hands on it. My life is so very tragic.

Hey, that was a low blow! I'll have to thumb wrestle you over that one.

Melinda.

And for future reference (for any of you who might be doing a search on this topic), write your explanatory note to Ed in the "Short Summary" space on the article submissions page, because this makes things a little quicker for him. Thanks again, Celeste, for your handy dandy info! Melinda.

Thanks! I did just as you said.

Melinda.

Yes! This is very helpful! Thank you.

Hey folks -- I turned in a private request the other day. The requester asked for some changes, which I made this morning. But then I went to send the article back to her, I clicked on "Private Request" for both the "Category" and for the "Is This For a Requests?" thing...

You know, 4rumid, I never realized that, but I read Wodehouse in high school and listened to Great Expectations last year on audiobook. I'll have to go back and take a look at Wodehouse in that light. I have to say that when I read Wodehouse in high school, I despaired that I would never ever make a...

Oh, yes, and Great Expectations by Charles Dickens! That is just the funniest dang book!

I write fiction for young adult and midgrade readers, and the YA world is just filled with great stuff. Right off the top of my head, some great ones are The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian by Sherman Alexie, and Looking for Alaska by John Green.

Are these words in one of your articles or on the forum in general?

They've been trying to keep up with zapping the forum spam but sometimes it seems like an uphill battle.
