I just wanted to thank everyone for the congratulations in the notes to my entry about getting selected for the MWP project. Your encouragement was really a buoy in the current crashing waves of deadlines, and I appreciate it!
And as a second quick entry,
melissa_writing and
frost_light both had brilliant February 5th entries on subjectivity in publishing. It's always heartening to see that people who are enjoying success had to struggle for it, just like the rest of us who are flailing away, hoping to place our work. The entries are definitely worth reading, so pop over.
