Keep writing, keep submitting and earn Koala Love Points! Report in at the end of every month and She Who Is Always Right will total your points and let you know which badge you may display on the side of your blog.
New victims always welcome - please let me know in the comment trail of the latest post. Full instructions for the 2012 challenge here!

Displease the Koala by neglecting your writing altogether and you may find yourself joining Sarah

With thanks to JJ de Benedictis for the fantastic artwork (and her fine abilities with toenail pliers).

...oh crud. October already?
Does reading for an editor - live and in person - count the same as querying?
Oh good lord, already?
*mutter*
Ha!!! Sylvia said 'good lord'!!!
I'm telling her mum!
Sarah, am I being stoopid if I ask, reading what?!
Well. I think I should withdraw from the competition. I never successfully switched over from the Special Furry Rules, and I don't see it changing. I'm spending any free time, by and large, doing work-type papers, so I'm likely to remain on smackdown.
Thanks for hosting me, however!
Well, not the phone book.
;-)
Reading the first 5 or so pages of 2 of my mss to 3 different editors (1 ms per editor). Getting requests for full from 2 of the editors.
It was my favorite writer's retreat weekend. It's like querying without the query letter and getting a nearly immediate answer though not as fast as Jen has gotten in the past.
Ah, yes, OK Sarah, that can count as a query. Straight to approves.
As for you Paca, you're going to be part of my new advertising slogan:
The Koala Challenge. So difficult that the highly eddicated can't handle it.
I feel like Biggles, turning over teacup, map and socks for want of goggles.
But sadly I'll have to make do with Tarzan.
Whatever law of averages you subscribe to, the guy in the loincloth always gets there first.
