Hi Lurk!

On how you got the manuscript....

> Asking
> questions. I asked for the manuscript!

I like that.... If you want something, you usually gotta ask!

For people to get themselves to a stage where they feel comfortable ASKing for what they WANT is a big step for many....

Thanks for the reminder -- asking works. :)

I got myself a discount on a restaurant meal a couple days ago, how did I do it? I ASKed if I could get one.... It's not quite on the same level as your manuscript, but I'm still pretty happy about it. :)

Many things are negotiable, especially if you give people a sensible reason to negotiate....
