    yeah, but it was so broken it was breaking the story. I wrote enough on friday to make up half the amoutn I was behind. I’ve started NaNo as late as the 7th and finished on time, but i could type faster then. Thanks

    Better to have it happen on day one as opposed to day 20. Rewrite, and move forward!

    I got as far as reading their TOS…
    More seriously, I’m focused more on this fanfic at the present, until I’m ready ready for a change.  That said, having a goal is a good idea, and as this is a bit of a rewrite, the 70k mark is likely reasonable and in line with the nanowrimo goal of 50k for a novel.  (I’m seeing enough of a jump in words on the rewrite that the existing draft is more like an outline in a lot of underdeveloped areas than actual prose.)

    Ahh, well, I suppose on AFF that is more likely the case.

    Given the rarity of reviews, I think it’s much more likely they’re rejoicing that they got a review.

    When there’s a difference of opinion between betas, I always suggest you go with the beta who writes stuff or reads stuff closer to what you want to emulate. Or get a third person to be the tie breaker!

    More is clear, but no less infuriating. It’s the health care equivalent of an accusation that I beat my children. You can’t really disprove it and it will cost you a lot of money and hassle to even go through the motions to remove a problem that doesn’t exist. MAJOR disruption with my health problems. And the accusation already spread to another agency. And it will haunt us unless we blow thousands we don’t have.
    Bitch who made the accusation, did that after she was a no call no show over the weekend. (making us look worse as parting finger up)  The agency started an end run around us without even telling us. Not even counting the health strain which is already hitting HARD, this will cost thousands to ‘disprove’ as the disprovers make bigger profits if they believe the accusation. 
    BTW I had a nurse-practicioner visit yesterday for an unrelated reason and saw NO sign of any issue. The worker making the accusation has no nursing degree. just spite it seems.
    I wish I could sue. There isn’t enough penalties for slander like this. But the primary author is in a near minimum wage worker.
    Stress went from normal everyday 2 to 10, and I do NOT need this as I was trying to prep for NaNo

    That the aide wanted to get out of her work by blaming the customer….geez.  I mean, I could understand car difficulties, illness, etc, if it were the first thing off their lips.
    I’d think some letters of appreciation/thanks to the people who helped you out here would likely do wonders     And cc’ing enough people so they’re in their personnel files for their next performance eval/raise would definitely set you apart!  Just an idea….

    This wasn’t a social worker but an aide, basically unskilled. as any nursing certs could get another job and she clearly doesn’t have a calling. The other agency (supervisor and aide) vouched against the slander as did the other aide from the same agency. So there was only the slanderer and the agency that believed someone who decided she did want to be blamed for no call no show 3 days. (we’re leaving the agency after sunday night’s shift if I can find out what I should do) That was after the 1st version they told their agency that they could not work over the weekend because they lost their phone and car not working- ALL WEEKEND, and none of their 4 teen+ kids had a phone or car to help.  This fast passed to the county overview, where it would follow my family and home forever. It seems to have worked out, but it was a miserable 48 hours where I could not sleep, eat right, write or work on my writing class… The social worker didn’t  act on the slander, did the footwork to expose the lie, she’s a peach.
    I like mine hard boiled with a little salt. And in many splendid things like greek egg-lemon soup and french toast.
    Thanks!
