***NOTE: The system crashed on 8/13, and the weekly batch failed to get sent out. I'm replacing the whole server... so a lot of stuff isn't working right. Keepcopies of anything you send in, like critiques or manuscripts, in case they don't work right. Fingers crossed. Let me know of anything else that isn't working right. I'm hoping to get this week's batch sent out soon. :) ***
