I put out an APB concerning overdue assignments last night. I did not have enough available time and resources to reassign them to other writers before 9:00 am this morning. Therefore, if you have an overdue article in your My Articles section, you have a slight reprieve. But I need these articles by 9:00 am Monday 12/22. If you cannot do this, please release the article(s) so that someone else can write them instead.
If you pick up an article from the writer panel that is already overdue, please email me and ask me to change the due date to 12/22 so I don’t end up scolding you for missing the deadline. 😉

There’s a truly great post called… The Inigo Montoya Guide to 27 Commonly Misused Words

I learned this morning that Editor Jen has passed away, apparently of natural cardiac causes. She will be missed as both a friend and a coworker.
I am waiting to hear from her brother about where flowers and/or charitable donations can be sent, and I will let you know if you are interested in contributing.
