Just got an e-mail from Reed...

They've got my application. I checked the status online and saw a couple of things that concerned me a bit (like that it said they didn't have one of the forms that I'm positive I included in the application), but I sent them an e-mail and everything should be okay soon. Hopefully.

There's a new Spectrum issue out. I've got five articles in this one, or rather four and one co-written one:
Advocacy Day, written with Sharai.
The Great Quail Debate, a headline which they unfortunately did not use.
Separation of church and state, based on my reaction to all the religion I saw in the state capital.
Hair dye, something I wrote in ten minutes because I hadn't gone to Jefferson City yet and I needed to turn in an article.

And, of course, the Scott Church interview.

I didn't write any of the headlines, and the misspelling of "artist" in the last one is not my fault. I will try to get that changed ASAP.

EDIT: Oh, and palecur- please note that I used the word "flouted" correctly in the church/state article.

EDIT THE SECOND: scottchurch is just about the only person on the planet besides cfb4629 who can get away with calling me "princess."
