Hi,

Sorry for the spam and the rant, but this one is 
needed.  This is a problem that's happenning a lot 
more frequently in the past few weeks.   Also, I'm 
only speaking for myself here, not my two cohorts in 
the Reviews List, so please don't blame them.

When you submit your fic to the Synopsis List, 
*please* make sure the title you submit is _exactly_ 
the same title you put in the subject header when you 
posted the story to the FFML.  The title you give to 
the Synopsis List is what I use in the FFML Archive's 
search engine, and if you use a different name, spell 
it wrongly, or change words or characters (ie., you 
replaced 'and' with '&' in the title) it makes it 
very difficult and time consuming for me to find your 
story.  Stories that are hard for me to find are 
reviewed last, and I end up giving them the least 
amount of time and effort; writers who make it easy 
for me to find them get the most time and effort in a 
review.

Sorry to sound unkind if that peeves anybody, but I 
only have so many hours in a week to read and review 
stories.  Thanks for your indulgence.

Up to my eyeballs in backlog, 
Shunsuke
