I'm trying this route. We'll see what happens. I received a full manuscript request after sending off a couple of sample chapters and cover letter, but haven't heard any definite news yet.

Hehe, you still should have. "Hey everyone! I deserve hugs!" That'll get them to like you.

(*cough* Please not Jan... anything but Jan! *cough* Lol... Idk why but I have a rather strong dislike of that name, for me. ) I'm going to call them and tell them to tackle you with hugs next time you're there. ...What are their numbers?

(Maybe because it has such an abrupt end to it and makes it more of a serious name, where as Janny or anything else is more fun....?) That's great, Gina! I'll be praying for you and your novel!

Not sure where exactly to put this but I have a question about formatting stories. How do I get a header on all the pages save the first? I've tried everything I can think of...
