If you are a writer and haven’t checked out Editorial Anonymous, you should. Take a look at the adorable Slush Monster created by Melinda Beavers while you are there. My favorite is the list of things not to include in a submission down the side of the site:
“THINGS NOT TO SEND IN SLUSH EVER AGAIN
- flashlights
- shoe shine kits
- dead bugs
- photos of you
- photos of you dressed in formalwear
- photos of you dressed in your Halloween costume
- photos of you not dressed
- glitter
- confetti
- glitter confetti (I’m serious)
- dolls, handmade or otherwise
- dolls, especially not santa dinos
- tea, coffee, hot chocolate
- seed packets
- money
- dental x-rays
- farting handpuppets (mini whoopee cushion)
- woolen stockings full of jellybeans
- crates of tangerines
- contraceptives
- fake contraceptives”
Well, what are you doing reading my boring blog? Get over to Editorial Anonymous and learn while you laugh.

I’ve had Editorial Anonymous linked on my blog since the beginning — a very cool blog indeed!
