I probably use it way to much, and it i...LOL, Jody. I probably use it way to much, and it isn't that you *can't* use it, it's that you need to use it very little.<br /><br />Hmmmm... I can tell that there will be a blog post out of that particular writing rule (uh, I mean, guideline) very soon! Like, tomorrow?!?<br /><br />No phone call for me either. My chest about dropped into my stomach yesterday when they announced the agent/editor of the year on the ACFW e-mail loop. I was sure all the phone calls had been made and the genesis finalists were about to be e-mailed out!<br /><br />But they weren't. I haven't seen anyone else announce a *call* either, so I'm still twiddling my toes waiting!<br /><br />Yeah, and I saw also that Camy is on book deadline too so ugh, I can't imagine having to cope with ALL that at once. I'd send her an e-mail thanking her for her hard work... but she probably doesn't need yet another e-mail cluttering her inbox!Krista Phillipshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10772828583379163612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8885384159016667608.post-62192238895287851882009-05-07T05:14:00.000-05:002009-05-07T05:14:00.000-05:00We're not suppose to use "knew"?

(OK, sorry for that bit of sarcasm!)<br /><br />And, no phone call for me. Not sure if I really expect one! I read yesterday on one of my writers' groups chain emails that Camy was needing extra help with some aspect of the contest. So maybe they'll be running behind this year.<br /><br />I surprise myself with words too! I think when we're avid readers, the words stick in our brains without us even realizing it! Then they pop out at the most unexpected times!<br /><br />Have a great day!Jody Hedlundhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12424307540530719614noreply@blogger.com
