You're Not The Only One - update - 6
Well, the annoying and frustrating news is that we're going to have to delay "launching" the book til after Easter.
Sorry about that.
There are a few reasons: -
Still waiting on a cover. We have a few people working on that now, which is great.
Warchild haven't got back to me and approved the racier submissions (there are only a few).
Plus, I haven't heard back from a few submitters - can you check your spam folders and see if there is a You're Not The Only One email there: I wrote to a few people with thoughts on editing the odd one or two submissions and I am still waiting to hear back.
(please don't think that if you haven't been contacted that that means you're not in the book, that's NOT the case! One or two submissions were a bit too long so I suggested some edits. I will post the final list after Easter when we have the finished book - there's more than 100 of you in it and its bloody brilliant!)
Thank you again for submitting and I'm sorry for the delays.

Hello. This post is likeable, and your blog is very interesting, congratulations :-). I will add in my blogroll =). If possible gives a last there on my blog, it is about the Celular, I hope you enjoy. The address is http://telefone-celular-brasil.blogspot.com. A hug.
Oh, girl! Don't you apologise to us lot! You've taken on a (what I imagine to be) enormous project and have executed with minimal delays! Good job. You're probably exhausted?
Ooohhhh puleeeze tell us who's in the book? This is torture... puleeeeeze...pretty please? With sugar on top? I don't mind the launch of the book that will only build anticipation for those waiting to buy copies but not knowing who is in it is toooortuuuuree!
You don't have to apologise, silly!
Like Clarissa said, its a massive job and you've done brilliantly well to get everything together so quickly!
Its probably not much help now, but if there is anything I can do just give me a shout and I'll do my best to help!
"Racier submissions"? Oh no, knew I should have cut the swearing.
Seriously, you have a heck of a job on your hands. Thanks for keeping us updated.
SM, how could you cut out the swearing? Then you'd just have been 'Mother'.
Anyway, why was I here?
Oh yes! Peach, you're doing a fab job, I still can't believe you're getting it together this quickly.
Hope you get sorted.
Can't wait to read the book, I'm sure it will be brilliant.
Ya just have to take things as they come at you.
Sounds like you've made a lot of progress on editing and selection so far. We'll all wait with interest to see what made the cut and see what you've managed to create in record time for War Child. Hope you get some time off over the Easter break too!
I'm excited!!
I volunteer three hours every other week and it wipes me out. I write two essays a week and giving birth to those posts drains the crap out of me. How you are doing this is beyond me but I just wanted to say - job well done. You are an example of what we all should be doing.
I'm telling everyone about this... can't wait!
No rush. You're dong a great job, btw...
Hope it all goes smoothly:)
And for once, Im not one of the RUDE sexbloggers. Mwahahahaha! The excitement is killing me! Cant wait to find out who's on the final list :)
Pins and needles I am on...
Any news??
Yeah, an update would be great if you have the time please.

I was away and don't know if you've emailed me or not. And I've cleared the spam folders. If you have emailed, would you please do it again.
