Indeed. The Mentor's Word is Law. If I'm not mistaken, not only are you evaluated on your content, you're evaluated on how well you interacted with your mentor.
Thanks for the tips, guys! I have been writing furiously and churning out articles. I have a lofty goal for information coverage and I hope I will achieve it.
So, I belong to a breastfeeding listserv (THE breastfeeding listserv, be all, end all one) and someone posted that she was looking for royalty-free images of different breastfeeding issues.
WOW! thought I! That is exactly what I need!!
So, I have been checking out the links that have been offered. Most of them I already knew but some are new.
Wow! This is great! These links are exactly what I need.
Wow....exactly what I need.
wow.
Uh....why is she requesting the same exact stuff that I need in Prep?
I'm a worrier. I'm paranoid, it's true.
Methinks I got some competition.
I mean, I know they select up to five for prep. But it was more comfortable to delude myself that I might be the only one.
But I have seen the email addy of the competition. She is real and her brain works like mine.
$*%#.
Nothing to do but write more articles.

BOO-HOO-HOO!
Just checked the Available Topics and it looks like the DAYS FANS site I applied for is filled because it's no longer on the list. They must've already started Prep when I applied. Dang it!
So, midwife and Talia, I can now dedicate all my About.com energies to you! Best wishes and keep us posted!
Aww...sad face. Don't be too disheartened. I'm sure something great will come your way. I'm a Days fanatic, but I don't have a cookbook, lol. Do you, by chance, post at Soaps Community?BOO-HOO-HOO!

Hi, Guys. Thanks so much for sharing my bummer-ness with me! I am sooooo bummed--I really thought the Days site had "RitrChick" written all over it. Guess that must be fate's way of making room for something else (?)
And Jen, nope, not a word from them yet--yay or nay. Maybe, just maybe, they're hanging on to my app just in case nobody knocks their socks off in Prep. Maybe the same is true for you, Jen, and that's why you haven't heard back. We can dream, right?
latoya--no, I don't post at Soaps Community. Not familiar with it. Is is something I should look into?
