Will you be up watching your mailbox?? What if I sent my masterpiece on Saturday, 30th at 12:01 am? Would you throw it away, or still consider it for publication?

I might have to stay up that night just to test this out.



I bet you get lots of great stories!! MINI People are some of the most interesting, creative people that I know! I can't wait to read the next newsletter! I love those things!

@ 12:01 AM on Saturday I'm sure Ingrid will already have the newsletter put together and sent.

Include photos and try to use MS Word to avoid annoying software issues.
I too am looking forward to the submitted articles (yarns not so much).

I might add a note for Mr. Maybee, use an old version of word or at least save in an older format. My vista 2007 version was not compatible for Ingrid's version.

Just a thought. Still true Mr. Chuck?

I believe it to be so. If you can save in a Windows Word 2007 format just to be safe. Darn Vista!

if you have office 2003 there is a free download to read 2007 or docx files from microsoft. Office 2007 can read anything from office 97 to current including raw text and the like.
