http://brendanovak.auctionanything.com Brenda Novak is running an auction in support of diabetes research. If you're a writer in need of an agent or editor, you should look at the auction. Several editing services and query submissions are being auctioned and it would be a good way to get your foot in the door while supporting a great cause!

I hate how they keep changing everything, but I've had the timeline for probably 6 months or so. I got it as soon as I could to test it out. I think it actually makes some things easier, just difficult to adjust. And I love having a single large image at the top of my profile, it's flashy. *Laugh*
