"Salt of Judas"

<< < (2/2)

Skar:
Thanks.  Am I correct then in assuming that they print it out for the slush pile?

Eric James Stone:
Well, I don't know about that.  I'm just going off of: (1) That's how my manuscripts were formatted when I sent them to IGMS, and (2) Always use standard manuscript format unless specified otherwise.  (For example, Strange Horizons has very specific rules on how to format a manuscript to submit to them electronically via text-based email.)

Tink:
Geez. It seems like it would be easier to just copy the story into Notepad and then add the characters to indicate ital. Wouldn't you think? Doesn't Notepad automatically strip formatting and curly quotes, so you wouldn't have to go through the trouble of removing them yourself?

The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers:
some curly quotes are kept, actually. It's best to do a find and replace.
