Good lord...

I have actually done my first banning of a non-troll journal. (The comments in question are all frozen, since the person cannot answer back - it wouldn't be fair.)

Honestly, people, if someone misunderstands you it is your responsibility to APOLOGIZE, not to get up in arms because you weren't aware of the implication of your words. Own your fucking words! Or go complain in your own LJ!

P.S. It was the attempt to dictate to Rachel who could and could not answer her question that really torqued me off and spurred the ban. This is my LJ, and I am the dictator here! Argue all you want with each other, but be aware that I think ANYONE has the right to respond, and may.

Artist Alley Survival Guide

I have been working on on the AA Survival Guide for quite some time now, and I think it's nearing completion! At least, I've got all the major chunks done.

What I need, now, is for a couple of people willing to cast their eye over it to volunteer to read it and tell me if I'm confusing you anywhere, if I've left words out, or if you can think of a better way to word any section. Or if you can think of any advice I've left off, or have any further suggestions.

It's, er, almost 16K words long. When it's posted to the Tutorials section on projectbluerose.com (it'll be announced here, never fear!), it'll be broken up into short sections, and each section will have its own page, so it won't be overwhelming to read.

So! If you fear not, and want to look over it for me, then drop me a comment with your email address so I can invite you to the guide on Google Docs. THANKS!
