Writers,
Please be aware that the Private Request category is for only PRIVATE requests - i.e., a customer contacts you privately. Public requests are the ones that everyone can see. These belong in the regular categories.
Thanks,

HIding the private requests makes sense especially so the purchasers can be assured of their product and I'm definitely for that.
On the other hand, for those of us who write mainly for private requests we have no outlet for showing our abilities to future customers (short of posting to the general requests or posting articles of our own interests). For example, a brand-new customer recently contacted me to work on a new private request and I suspect he saw my work posted and decided we'd make a nice team. If he couldn't see all those related articles he may not have noticed . . . If there were some way to let others see them yet make them "off limits" that might work. I don't know. . . .any thoughts?
