Thank you for the incredible ...Happy Birthday, RYS! Thank you for the incredible service you offer. Elements most important to me would be: multiple submissions per month (still a limit, but maybe two instead of one), referrals to editors and agents, and reduced fees for professional critiques. I'm not sure about the open submissions window because having a specific time to submit helps me get my butt in gear to make sure I don't miss the window and it allows time to work on revisions for the following month(s).Writer Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02721448120167247946noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5499544192040102367.post-22196488634316040472013-09-02T09:25:32.562-07:002013-09-02T09:25:32.562-07:00Rate Your Story has provided amazing feedback...an...Rate Your Story has provided amazing feedback...and I love the idea of the membership option.

Sometimes, just a few sentences about what to improve or focus on is enough to inspire a great revision, without a complete critique.Carrie Fhttp://storypatch.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5499544192040102367.post-4515459055562695692013-09-01T18:43:20.583-07:002013-09-01T18:43:20.583-07:00Happy Birthday, RYS!!!

Two turned out to be a terrific year of incredible, exciting growth and change, and so it shall be for RYS as well.<br /><br />I love the idea of customized services via RYS Membership Options. Here's another idea to mull over: I've always appreciated comments when offered by judges in conjunction with the rating score. Perhaps assuring members that they will receive brief written critiques with scores would be appealing for some members?<br /><br />Best wishes for Year Two!Cathy Ballou Mealeyhttp://bildebok.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
