Thank you very much,

Hmm, Politics…
Now there’s a subject I LOL @ writing about but haven’t done professionally. I’d prolly have to use a pen name.
I tried twice to respond to this advertisement and both times I got a mailer demon saying it was too big and when you open it the email is filled with random letters and slashes…?+++++++++++++++++
now that you’ve outed yourself, perhaps.
Melissa – if you are applying via a Craigslist address, there is a size limit of 150kb for messages.
Hi Melissa,
I’m sorry you’re experiencing problems with the craigslist address. If you’d like, you can resend your message to my actual address: anthonyl@clearwire.net.
As a published author and writer for several major websites, you should be advised that most who use the infamous “Craigs List” as the responding outlet….chances are you won’t know if your article is published or you won’t get paid.
Use common sense.
Now there’s a breath of fresh air gas.
Seriously, it’s easy enough to check on people. But if you’re talking about sending clips, sending published clips with notice is a good idea.
Craigslist has been good to me… there are good and bad, just like any outlet.
I was just passing along info that I was unable even after sending my attachment in another email to get my application delivered. Trust me, it wasn’t that large!This was my first issue and also why I knew I was having a problem. Thanks for the help from Anthony. I wasn’t publishing just asking for a job!
Melissa,
I also had a problem sending my mail!
