Oh. My. God.

I've been trying to e-mail my submission for the past half hour, and Stewart Wieck keeps replying to tell me that the e-mail is sending my .rtf attachment as bizzaro text within the e-mail, rather than as, say, AN ATTACHMENT.

This, as you can imagine, makes me and the baby Jesus want to cry.

STRESS.

If it does not work from my work e-mail, I don't know what I will do. Waaaaah.

Edit: Sending from work e-mail worked. Will go hyperventilate in a closet for a minute. But, yes. It's in, folks. No turning back now.

Now I'm just stressed that they will/won't choose it. I can't decide which would be more stressful; thinking about either makes me want to cry and vomit.

Are you sure this isnt his mail reader just displaying the attachement for him? he may be able to see a save as button somwhere...

Outlook loves doing this with image attachements.

you may beable to solve by zipping the file.

[alexmegami]

It was solved by sending it through work, but thanks for the idea. :)

Augh, that sucks. That kept happening to me when I was trying to send scripts to actors through e-mail, and most replied that it came out a gobbletygook. I like to go with the "their fault" scenario, where they have attachments displayed inline text instead of, y'know, an attachment. As you, um, already said.

I'm bonding over your pain, okay? ;)

[alexmegami]

*bonds* :D

I'm sure you'll do awesome. :D I'm excited for when we finally get to read this thing! (This is the WW story, right?) (Or am I just REALLY lost?)

*GLOMPS*

[alexmegami]

This is the WW story, indeed. :)

[sasuran.livejournal.com]

I am teh excited for you. :)

[alexmegami]

Thanks! Cross your fingers, on Friday we'll probably find out when the top 5 will be announced (of course, they have just under 400,000 words to read before that date, so...!)

[adagioweapon.livejournal.com]

500,000, counting synopses.

[alexmegami]

True.

[sasuran.livejournal.com]

Whoah, that's a lot of reading. o_O

*CROSSES FINGERS*!!

[alexmegami]

100 entries x (4000 words + 1000 word synopsis) = DEEEEEATH!

Good luck! If you get chosen, I'm sure you'll do fine. If not, well, they're all Philistines anyway.

[alexmegami]

Hahaha, of course...
