***NOTE: The system crashed on 8/13, I've replaced the whole server... so some stuff may not be working right. Keepcopies of anything you send in, like critiques or manuscripts, just in case. Let me know of anything else that isn't working right. To shake things out, the first batch will extend to 9/3. In theory, the 9/3 batch will go out normally. Fingers crossed! ***
