Great attitude. Best of luck. ;-)

I agree! I'm in the same boat myself re. rushing my story but your attitude is inspiring. Good luck to you both!

I'm nervous to post mine, and I'm not usually like that (even if I think it's garbage). I think it's because I felt so little control during the process due to illness. Anyone else feeling that way this round? I felt like I read more posts about struggling than in any of the other six comps I've participated in here. Even during finals!

I am sort of technically inept and don't know how to make a little post rather than an enormous url link. Maybe someday I'll get the hang of this stuff.

You don't want to put this here!  Put it up in the SS Contest review form!  Make your post up there and then add the link to your post page to the master list post so people can find you :) 

I highly recommend that both you and patsy delete the link from your comments -- as this forum is public. You want to post to the private sub-forum as a separate topic so people can leave comments for you. 

There are some how-to-post guides around if you haven't done this before.

They just sent my confirmation, so I'm assuming everyone's gotten theirs now as well! Happy Posting!

I'm posted!

I won't get to reviewing them for a day or so. I am blasted with work right now.
