Your trip that private blog entries or articles are as worthwhile as those published in major magazines was huge. Thank you for that.

I would like to know if I pith an editorial staff and they don't reply to me within a week (or 5 days), I am considered rejected? I would like to know how long I need to wait before I can move on to pith the next editor.

Very helpful, positive and practical. I've even signed up to Twitter (and followed your account ;)). I'm based in the UK so I'm not sure what opportunities, if any, that you share are open to me here. Any tips for writers across the pond would be appreciated.

Girl, you talk FAST!!! LOL!! Is that how fast they talk in the city? I've been there a million times and never talked to someone...well I was a tourist so maybe its different. What's a magazine office like? What's the culture like? Is it exciting?
