Poll Results and Thanks!

Thank you for everyone who took the time to respond to my poll. The question was, what topic should I run a series about next, and the winner was, short story writing. Here are the full results as I tabulated them.

Writing short stories	11
Blogging for writers	7
The submissions process	5
21st Century Poetry (so far)	5
Exploring writing careers	4

Also, I want to thank everyone who Stumbled my article, 10 Ways to Make Editors Hate You Before They Even Know You, last month. Thanks to you folks, I received almost 17,000 hits for that article. That helped me reach 166,000 visits last month — my best month in over a year. Special thanks goes to Jansie, who “discovered” the article.

It will take me a few days to prepare, so look for a series about short stories starting next Friday.
