That's actually soon in children's publishing terms!
Don't I know it! But this is exactly why I wanted to be with an adult house that had gone into YA rather than a strict children's house.

Anybody willing to read through my teaching statement? It's about two and a half pages long, and I'd just really like someone else's eyes on it before I send it out, and I've given up on that "someone" being my advisor. I can email it as a Word file.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
How soon do you need it back, Hil? I wouldn't be able to get to it it until tomorrow afternoon or evening.

Feel free to send it to my profile address, then. This is part of the job application process, or something else?

Thanks, -t. I'll get it to you tonight or tomorrow morning.
Yeah, it's for the job application process.

Hil, I'd look at it for you because I just wrote my yearly teaching statement. But I am overwhelmed right now and wouldn't be able to get it back to you for a few days. When do you need it? Nov 1?

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Hil, I mentioned in Bitches that I'm happy to look at teaching statement, but I'll say so here too, in case you miss that. I have some time this evening (which will be afternoon your time).

Coding and Sleeping
I got to the end of 23, right there I the end I returned to the rough draft and actually used words from it! The chapter runs a bit long though. I hope running long doesn't become a trend.
Now to read back through it and make adjustments followed by my critique I need to do and I'll be off to 24, a short, brand new chapter.
