I don't know if this has been mentioned before 'cause there are a lot of threads about the glitches (and sorry to add work to your pile, Chris!), but the punctuation in some of my short and long summaries is a bit weird.

Thank you Chris - I really appreciate your quick action on this one. I've changed my pricing on that article to usage only. That site is going to have all kinds of problems if they keep their policy as it stands now. They allow unregistered users to post articles? It's like they're intentionally try...

Stolen Article - Check for Your Names Too

I've already written to admin about this, but I thought you should all be aware of it too.

Congrats Gail!

I have to add my thanks as well. There aren't many sites where the owner and editors are as active as they are here. You're all very much appreciated!

Re: Are Your Short Summaries Working for You?

Don't: Use lots of exclamation points in your short summaries. (LOOK! I have tables in my article!!) Hee! Does anyone know if spitting a mouthful of coffee onto a keyboard while trying to contain laughter causes permanent damage? :lol: Thanks for the tips Ed - those are great points. I know I'm gui...

Just wanted to check in and say hello! I've been a writer here for a while but haven't been able to contribute much since last Christmas. Been wanting to come back, but time and family circumstances just didn't agree with me. Anyway, hello to all the familiar "oldies" I see still here, and...
