The dates in that autoresponse are incorrect, left from the original
closing date, I believe. Another author pointed this out and I forgot to
change it. My apologies for the confusion. I will follow up with updated
dates.

Hello all,
Quick question for you: I have dutifully submitted my story for
"Alternate Rochesters" before the midnight deadline (with 10 minutes
to spare) and got the following message after I clicked the Submit button:
"At this time, we do not plan to review submissions until after the
close of the submission period, on about June 15. We will let you know
whether your work has been accepted by about the end of September. If
you have not had notice by mid-October, please feel free to contact
us. Check the main anthology page for updates."
Scanning quickly through the R-Spec website, I don't see any notes or
news that confirm these dates -- they're a bit different from the 15
April 2011 response time and 31 May 2011 decision letters on the
anthology page.
Sooooo, in a nutshell, which set of dates is correct? Just managing
expectations here.
Cheers!

The deadline for submissions to our second anthology, /Rochester
Rewritten/, is midnight tomorrow night (night of 3/31-4/1). Gee,
author, you look kind of peaked. Pale, contracted pupils, panicky
look and light-headedness at the mention of "R-SPEC" or "anthology" -
I think you have Writers' Fever! You need to call in sick tomorrow so
you can wrap up that story and submit it to R-SPEC for the anthology!
Doctor? No way - priorities! Besides, the only cure for Writers'
Fever is hours of non-stop writing with an imminent deadline. So
polish up your sick voice for your boss, brew up a ton of coffee,
close your e-mail and web applications, and get busy!
Oh, and thank you to those who inoculated against Writers' Fever by
submitting already. :-D
Have a great and productive 25 hours,
Dave
