PMed you.

It would be great if you could send the story to me before 6:30 so I'll be sure to get it before I leave (and won't have to - maybe - wait until Saturday). Thanks.

Deirdre, could you PM information about your proofreading rates? I have an 80,000 page novel, which was, in theory, proofread (by a novice.) Thanks, Carla
