Bulletin Board Blab 4.22.05

bsbss.bmpThank Grandma it’s Friday. Here’s what people are discussing on the bulletin boards:
Pitching to Jane‘s It Happened to Me section? Some questions and discussion here.
How much to charge for freelance book editing? Whatever you do, make note of what you end up charging so that if you do it again, you can ask for your standard or more.
Rant: why do people hate getting edited? Duh, because we’re artists, and words are our paint.
Are you being copyright violated? (Some info on this to come, hopefully, once I wrap my brain around it.)
Are you being screwed over making $27,000 a year as an EA? Hey, I got $21,500 at MY first job, as a copywriter, so you’re getting no sympathy from me!
Job interviews: when in doubt, get some use out of that suit.
