Bulletin Board Blab 3.11.05

board.bmpThe electronic kaffeklatsch that is the MB bulletin board:
Have you been ignored by an editor? Dump here! Also, what do you do about it? Well, you can try, try again, but if several emails go unanswered and it’s over a spread amount of time (to make up for potential vacation or discovery in spam filters), you have to assume it’s a ‘no.’ You can try calling the editor, if you can, as long as you can stand the possibility of being rejected over the phone (that email cushion has something going for it.)
More of a question of ethics than a very helpful thread, but how can you showcase your clips online? Can you get trouble for copyright infringement or is it not a big deal? I will try to tackle this more precisely in a future post, myself.
Oh, to be in this position. Deflecting a job counteroffer.
