Yeah, I have no problem with disconnected body parts, but this publisher is known for hating them with the fire of a thousand suns. Changing every body part to S/He moved his hand down my spine from the original His/Her hand moved down my spine makes it weaker and adds needlessly to the word count, IMO. But hey, what do I know, right?
Today I plan to do a buttload on this ms., maybe even all of it. We shall see.
In other news, my personal email, which I've had since the mid-1990s, has winked out of existence. I can't sign in, and mail sent to it bounces back with a no-such-email-exists message. My guess is that it was hacked--again!--and used to do something so awful Yahoo killed it. I've begun the process of getting it back, but I'm angry and worried I'll lose the contact list if they can't or won't restore it.
Maryn, who doesn't know what more she can do to safeguard it
