Improper Submissions
Published November 1st, 2010 | Back when I still accept postal mail submissions, one of the things that often ticked me off, was the way some writers chose to submit their writings. Multiple fonts, handwritten on flowery stationary, envelopes absolutely covered in packing tape, and short stories stapled or even bound with a Velo Bind. Now, with email submissions, I don’t have the same problems necessarily (no envelopes, no binding, for example), but I do encounter problems. For instance, why do people when they get online not understand the difference between the .doc file format and the .docx format? Once upon a time, I’d give a writer a second chance to resubmit is manuscript if it arrived with a .docx extension. But, lately, I’ve received so many submissions in the .docx format, I just automatically reject them. It’s not like I haven’t been clear on the matter. I cannot do anything with a .docx file. In fact, I’m not aware of any publication accepting submissions in a .docx format.
Jane Austen Would Probably Laugh About This
Published October 26th, 2010 | I’m going to let you guys in on . . . well, I’m not sure that it’s a secret, but a tidbit that some would not believe about me: I read Jane Austen. Yes, it’s true. I adore Jane Austen. So it is with a measure of both fascination and silent horror that I read this headline in The Telegraph: "Jane Austen’s famous prose may not be hers after all".
To even suggest that Jane Austen didn’t write her books is something close to sacrilege in the literary world. Of course, when I actually read the article, it wasn’t nearly all that. Leave it to mainstream journalism to sensationalize the smallest things to attract readers. No, the “controversy” here, is spawned by an academic who studied some early drafts of Austen’s novel and came to the conclusion that — gasp — Jane Austen must’ve had an editor. See, in Austen’s early drafts she misspelled some words, used unorthodox grammar and didn’t always break passages into paragraphs.
A few things about this:
1) I’ve always imagined that Austen wrote her stories in something of a fever. So, it really doesn’t surprise me that she initially laid her story down without regard for convention.
2) Name one writer who can spell. Even I’m not the ace speller I was back in the fifth grade.
3) Jane Austen is Jane Austen not for her ability to break things up into paragraphs, but for her memorable characters and for her insights into the social mores of her time.
4) Does Professor Katherine Sutherland really imagine that novels are published without being edited? I know in this day and age it must be hard to imagine but come on!
