  2. Hi, thanks for the tip. I had a look at the website and I hope that the creators are marketing the site to publishers for their comments. Send your personal details to my email address for my comments on your manuscript. Writing is hard work and sometimes very serious, I suggest you go to the Miss Snark link for some snarky comments on cover letters - that should cheer you up!

    Thanks for making newnoise!!
