I’m finalizing the contracts for an anthology that I’m editing/publishing, and I got to thinking that I hadn’t heard back from another publisher regarding the contracts that I’d had some questions about.
So I go looking at the correspondence thread in my email account and discover that instead of “sending” my reply to them a month ago, I’d only “saved” it, and the damn thing has been sitting in “draft” mode in my account.
Which goes a long way to explaining why I hadn’t heard back from them in the intervening weeks, as they’d still been waiting to hear back from me.
Nothing like a big face full of egg to start the day.
On the other hand, this is why Klingon has Replacement Proverbs. HIvqa’ veqlargh. Okay, now I feel much better.
