| I've heard back from and scheduled FOUR out of the ten NY authors I contacted over two weeks ago. I figure I have two options:
1. Email them again and beg. This bothers me because I'm doing them a service, not the other way around. 2. Give up and concentrate on the indie authors, who are much more responsive.
*whine, moan, bitch, complain* LOL

and remember I have 4 more authors to add to the list.

| Quick question- about how long should we give before we follow up with second emails about the features? I've been waiting on responses from authors for a month now and haven't heard anything. | |

I guess I'm more confused than grumpy. However, I feel like I'm wasting a LOT of energy on folks who just don't give a rat's patoot.

(this post edited because apparently I can't spell! LOL) Hey girl! Yeah, I sent out a couple of emails last week and so far I've only heard from four. Still waiting on six to reply. :-) Working on a schedule in the mean time. If it helps, I've sent them a tweet about my e-mail. Maybe you can do that? or FB? | |

| Okay! Sorry that I'm posting my list of authors now, but the end of my semester was insane, and then the holidays were equally insane. All are unconfirmed, unless otherwise noted.

| Two of my NY authors had to drop out for personal reasons, so I have to update my list and find new NY Spotlight authors. The list on here still has them listed, so I don't know if there are any other authors who have had to drop out as well. Am I missing the updated list? I am a bit tired... and stressed... and crazy (ok, that one's not entirely new). | |

| MamaKitty: Great question! I didn't know anyone had dropped out. I hadn't received a reply from a couple authors, but know it's a busy time, so I was laying low. I don't want to pester folks that aren't coming. | |
