You might want to move your initial posting so people can earn points, which are needed to post new work.
Thank you, Randall!!:) How do I move my post? Sorry, I'm a complete newb?
Go to your Publishing settings and select the "Premium" which has the stack of coins next to it.
Many thanks, CJ! I got tied up and didn't get a chance to send this along to Inksplatter.:)

Hi everyone,
Just signed a contract for Mission: Angola (Xavier Sear Thriller Book 1) with Solstice Publishing. Many thanks to all who provided chapter reviews as the story unfolded. Couldn't have achieved this without your help!
Thanks again and best regards,

Many thanks, Bill. I don't remember his name but can dig it up if you want. He was one of six who auditioned for the role through Amazon's Audible.

Topic: Colombian Betrayal - Now Available in Audio (7 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
Hi everyone,
Colombian Betrayal, workshopped on TNBW was released earlier this year. Today it went live as an audiobook. If anyone is a member of Audible and is interested in a free download, please let me know and I'll send you a free redemption code. Unfortunately, this is only available for those who use Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk and I think iTunes. All I ask for is an honest review after you've listened.
Thanks and regards, Randall

Longevity and reviewing over that time span is the key. I think, though Sol might correct me on this, I’ve been a member here since 2008. Twelve years, nine novels workshopped, and tens of hundreds of reviews later, I remain committed to TNBW. I’ve given my reasons for my continued membership here a few times over those years. A site such as this can’t be beat for novel critiques. Whether you self-publish or want to polish before submission to a publisher, you can’t go wrong with letting the knowledgeable folks at TNBW weigh in on your creation.
Well said!

It sometimes take me two to three weeks to reciprocate all incoming reviews. I'm too addle minded to track that much information for any length of time. I want to make sure everyone who is supposed to gets a recip.
Don't know if it will help, but I keep an acknowledgements log for those who have read my work (and where I'm at with them). This also provides me with the names of those I want to acknowledge when I'm ready to publish.

Re: Council vs council (2 replies, posted in TheNextBigWriter Premium)
This is the best example I can find in the Chicago Manual of Style:
the cardinal; John Cardinal Dew (in formal contexts) or Cardinal John Dew; Cardinal Dew; the sacred college of cardinals.
Based on this, it appears it should be Pope's council of cardinal advisors. Perhaps some others will chime in, but that's what I would be using.

Will be getting to the revised list shortly. Just finished my first edit pass of Xavier Sear: Angola and sent it to my ARC team. My goals is to send it to my publisher the beginning of December. In the meantime, back to reading, reviewing, and writing.
