(Por Tiempo Limitado) https://teespring.com/es/stores/biblioteca-del-metal-1 Overkill es una banda estadounidense de thrash metal formada en 1980 en la ciudad de Old Bridge, Nueva Jersey. Es considerada una de las pioneras de este estilo, además de ser una de las agrupaciones enmarcada en el thrash metal que más álbumes ha publicado a nivel mundial. A lo largo de su carrera la banda ha experimentado constantes cambios en su alineación, siendo el cantante Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth y el bajista D.D. Verni los únicos miembros de la formación original que aún continúan en la agrupación. A menudo se les menciona como los "Motörhead del thrash metal". Al igual que otras bandas como Iron Maiden, Megadeth o los mismos Motörhead, Overkill creó una especie de mascota a la que llaman "Chaly". Se trata de un murciélago esquelético con una calavera humana como cara, cuernos, alas óseas y ojos verdes. Chaly ha aparecido en la mayoría de las portadas de sus discos. A la fecha, Overkill ha publicado 19 álbumes de estudio, uno de versiones, tres EP y tres álbumes en vivo. Fueron una de las primeras bandas de thrash metal en fimar con una discográfica importante (Atlantic Records en 1986), pero no lograron el éxito masivo de sus contemporáneos Anthrax, Exodus, Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer y Testament. Sus álbumes más populares y exitosos son Under the Influence (1988), The Years of Decay (1989), I Hear Black (1993), The Electric Age (2012) y White Devil Armory (2014), los cuales debutaron en las posiciones 142.ª, 155.ª, 122.ª, 77.ª y 31.ª respectivamente en la lista de éxitos estadounidense Billboard 200. En 2006, Overkill había vendido cerca de 625.000 copias de sus álbumes en los Estados Unidos desde la fundación del sistema Nielsen SoundScan y cerca de 16 millones de discos en todo el mundo al 2012. Overkill fue uno de los primeros grupos de thrash metal en aparecer en la escena. Formados originalmente en Nueva Jersey por D. D. Verni Y Rat Skates (sus nombres reales son Carlos Verni Y Lee Kundrat), aunque bajo el nombre de "The Lubricunts". Para avanzar con el proyecto, D.D. Verni puso un anuncio en un periódico local en busca de vocalista, anuncio que respondió un tal Bobby Ellsworth, que, por aquel tiempo tocaba también el bajo. Bobby fue contratado y junto con él apareció el primer guitarrista de la banda proveniente de la anterior agrupación de Ellsworth. Durante algún tiempo la banda fue dando tumbos, al igual que su nombre, el cual cambió varias veces hasta asentarse como Overkill. Inicialmente se dedicaron a hacer versiones de canciones de punk de bandas como The Ramones, Aron mc Garrigle y The Dead Boys, entre otros. Luego empezaron a versionar canciones como "Overkill" de Motörhead, "Prowler" de Iron Maiden o "Tyrant" de Judas Priest. En 1981, luego del abandono del guitarrista Robert Pisarek, ingresaron otros guitarristas a la agrupación, entre ellos Dan Spitz (quien integraría Anthrax poco tiempo después), Anthony Ammendola, Rich Conte, Mike Sherry y finalmente Bobby Gustafson. Posteriormente la banda comenzó a escribir sus propios temas, entre esas canciones destacan "Grave Robbers" (nombrada luego "Raise the Dead"), "Overkill" y "Unleash the Beast (Within)", esta última contenida en el demo Power in Black, publicado el 14 de septiembre de 1983, y considerada una de las primeras muestras de thrash metal de la historia. Para ese entonces, Overkill inició una etapa de presentaciones en clubes nocturnos en Nueva York y Nueva Jersey. En 1983, la alineación compuesta por Rat Skates, D.D. Verni, Bobby Gustafson y Blitz publica el mencionado demo Power in Black, grabación que causaría un gran impacto entre los coleccionistas “underground”. La canción "Feel the Fire" fue incluida en el compilado New York Metal '84 y la canción "Death Rider" apareció en el quinto volumen de la legendaria serie de compilaciones Metal Massacre. Tras la repercusión del demo, la banda aseguró un contrato con la disquera Azra/Metal Storm Records, que dio como resultado el EP Overkill de 1984, el cual agotó sus existencias en poco tiempo. Jon Zazula, propietario de Megaforce Records, decidió darle un contrato a la banda luego de escuchar el EP. Con Megaforce la agrupación grabó su primer larga duración: Feel the Fire en 1985. Entre 1985 y 1986 la banda salió de gira en soporte de su nuevo álbum, inicialmente abriendo conciertos en los Estados Unidos para Megadeth (que se encontraban en ese momento promocionando su disco Peace Sells) y luego junto a Anthrax y Agent Steel en territorio europeo. 1987 marcó el lanzamiento de la segunda producción de Overkill: Taking Over, publicado por Megaforce en cooperación con Atlantic Records. Este trabajo discográfico les valió el reconocimiento inmediato, especialmente por la canción "In Union We Stand", cuyo vídeo obtuvo fuerte rotación. Siguió otra gira por Europa, en este caso junto a los alemanes Helloween. A finales de 1987 publicaron un EP titulado !!!Fuck You!!!, que consistía en un cover de la canción del mismo nombre (original de la banda canadiense Subhumans) y de algunas versiones en vivo grabadas en Cleveland ese mismo año. 1987 también trajo consigo el abandono del baterista Rat Skates. Fue reemplazado por Mark Achabal para dar algunos conciertos, y luego de manera definitiva por Bob "Sid" Falck (anterior miembro de la banda Paul Di'Anno's Battlezone). Overkill lanza Under the Influence en 1988. Producido por Alex Perialas, Under the Influence presentó un sonido mucho más agresivo que Taking Cover. La canción "Hello From The Gutter" fue publicada como sencillo, con su vídeo rotando frecuentemente en el programa Headbangers Ball del canal MTV. Overkill siguió girando alrededor del mundo de manera constante. En 1989 vio la luz The Years of Decay, producido por el famoso Terry Date (Pantera, White Zombie y Soundgarden). El álbum se convirtió en un éxito instantáneo, mezclando la agresividad de Under the Influence con elementos épicos y estructuras musicales complejas. "Elimination" fue lanzada como sencillo. La gira soporte del disco se llevó a cabo en parte en una serie de conciertos llamada "Dawn of the Decade", junto a sus compañeros de disquera Testament. En 1990, el guitarrista y compositor Bobby Gustafson abandona Overkill. Verni y Gustafson habían tenido problemas en cuanto a la dirección que estaba tomando la banda, con Blitz compartiendo la misma opionión que Verni, y pidiéndole a Gustafson que abandonara el proyecto. Se añadieron dos nuevos guitarristas a la formación, Rob Cannavino y Merritt Gant. La nueva formación graba Horrorscope, nuevamente con el productor Terry Date, en 1991. El álbum es considerado como el más pesado de su catálogo, esto influenciado principalmente por los aportes de los dos nuevos guitarristas. Sin embargo, durante la gira promocional del disco, Sid Falck abandona la formación, interesado en grabar otro tipo de música. Fue reemplazado por el baterista Tim Mallare, con el que grabaron el álbum I Hear Black, producido esta vez por Alex Perialas y lanzado exclusivamente por la disquera Atlantic Records. Nuevamente se presentó un cambio en el sonido, esta vez influenciado por el stoner y el blues rock similar al sonido de Black Sabbath. Se grabó un vídeo para "Spiritual Void", aunque no logró la rotación esperada. La gira en soporte del álbum en tierras europeas los llevó a compartir escenario con Savatage. El séptimo álbum de la banda, W.F.O., fue publicado el 15 de julio de 1994. El disco retoma el sonido rápido y agresivo de sus primeras producciones, abandonando la experimentación. El vídeo de la canción "Fast Junkie" fue prácticamente ignorado por MTV, debido principalmente al protagonismo que estaban tomando bandas como Nirvana, Alice in Chains y Pearl Jam en el canal musical. Todos estos factores, sumado el decaimiento del género a mediados de los años 1990, llevaron a que Atlantic Records dejara de publicar discos de Overkill. En 1995 se publica el primer directo de la banda, Wrecking Your Neck Live bajo el sello CMC International. Ese mismo año Cannavino y Gant deciden dejar la banda; Rob Cannavino para enfocarse en su pasión: las motocicletas, y Merritt Gant para pasar más tiempo junto a su familia. Se contrató a Joe Comeau, cantante de la banda Liege Lord, ahora encargado de las guitarras. Comeau trajo consigo al guitarrista Sebastian Marino (ex-Anvil), con el que había trabajado en proyectos anteriores. La nueva alineación grabó el disco The Killing Kind en 1996, producido por la propia banda y mezclado por Chris Tsangarides (Judas Priest, Tom Jones, Thin Lizzy y Gary Moore, entre otros). Aunque la respuesta por parte de la crítica al álbum fue generalmente positiva, una porción de sus fanáticos se vio defraudado por lo "moderno" del sonido, que incorporaba elementos del recién surgido hardcore. En octubre de 1997 sale a la luz From the Underground and Below, conservando la misma fórmula de su producción anterior y agregando algunos elementos de metal industrial, particularmente notorios en la canción "Save Me". Se grabó un vídeoclip para la canción "Long Time Dyin'", pero su exposición en la televisión fue prácticamente nula. En 1998 nuevamente la banda optó por hacer la gira promocional solamente en Europa, esta vez acompañados de las bandas Nevermore, Angel Dust y Nocturnal Rites. En 1998, Blitz fue diagnosticado con cáncer nasal y fue sometido a cirugía inmediatamente, logrando controlar la enfermedad. Luego de su operación, la banda empezó a trabajar en su décimo álbum, que terminó llamándose Necroshine y fue publicado en febrero de 1999. Dave Linsk ingresó en la banda en reemplazo de Sebastian Marino. Septiembre de 1999 vio el lanzamiento de Coverkill, un álbum consistente en versiones de bandas que influenciaron el sonido de Overkill en sus primeros años, como Black Sabbath, Kiss, Motörhead, Manowar, Deep Purple, Judas Priest, The Sex Pistols y The Ramones. Una gira fue llevada a cabo para promocionar Necroshine y Coverkill en el año 2000 junto a las bandas Annihilator y Dew-Scented. La agrupación retornó al estudio esta vez sin Joe Comeau, y a finales del año 2000 grabó Bloodletting, producido por la banda y mezclado por Colin Richardson. Luego de tomar un descanso de dos años, Overkill regresó a escena con Wrecking Everything, su segunda producción en vivo, grabada en el Teatro Paramount en Asbury Park, Nueva Jersey. La gira de ese mismo año en promoción de Bloodletting y Wrecking Everything vio a Blaze y Wicked Mystic abriendo para Overkill. La agrupación logró un contrato con Spitfire Records e ingresó al estudio a finales de 2002 para grabar el disco Killbox 13. A finales del año 2004, luego de una gira por Japón junto a Death Angel y Flotsam and Jetsam, la banda empezó a trabajar en otro disco en el estudio privado de D.D. Verni. ReliXIV fue publicado en marzo de 2005. Tim Mallare abandona y es reemplazado por Ron Lipnicki. Ese mismo año Overkill anuncia su primera gira por la costa oeste estadounidense en más de diez años, convirtiéndose en un éxito de taquilla. Luego de su experiencia con Spitfire, Overkill firmó un contrato con el sello Bodog Records y lanzó su decimoquinta producción, Immortalis, el 9 de octubre de 2007. El cantante Randy Blythe (Lamb of God) aportó su voz para la canción "Skull And Bones". El 30 de octubre de 2009 la banda firma con Nuclear Blast Records. El álbum Ironbound — descrito como una obra maestra del thrash metal — fue publicado el 9 de febrero de 2010.The Electric Age (2012) y White Devil Armory (2014) fueron los siguientes discos, nuevamente producidos bajo el sello Nuclear Blast. En 2013 la banda se embarca en la gira Dark Roots of Thrash junto a Testament y Flotsam and Jetsam. Sin embargo, su presentación del 15 de febrero en Huntington fue cancelada por problemas de salud de Bobby "Blitz". Esto ocasionó que la banda fuera excluida del resto de la gira. El 16 de abril de 2016 la banda dio un concierto en la ciudad de Oberhausen, donde tocaron los álbumes Feel the Fire y Horrorscope en su totalidad. El concierto fue grabado de manera profesional, y se planea utilizar el material para la edición de un DVD. El 11 de agosto de 2016, Bobby Ellsworth reveló en una entrevista el título del nuevo álbum de la banda, el cual llevaría por nombre The Grinding Wheel. El álbum fue publicado finalmente el 10 de febrero de 2017 por el sello Nuclear Blast. El 6 de mayo de 2017, Overkill anuncia la incorporación de Jason Bittner como batería para cubrir la baja de Ron Lipnicki. El 22 de febrero de 2019 lanzan su decimonoveno álbum de estudio de material propio titulado The Wings of War. En abril de 2020, D. D. Verni avanzó que están trabajando en un nuevo álbum, con 9 temas ya escritos, para lanzarlo antes de la gira europea de marzo de 2021. Estos planes han quedado en el aire debido al Covid-19.

“Hazard NJ” is another environmental podcast from The WNET Group covering Superfund sites in New Jersey. They will be releasing four new episodes this fall to take fresh looks at the relationship between these Superfund sites and climate change, starting on September 28th. We hope you enjoy this episode, and encourage you to subscribe to “Hazard NJ” wherever you get your podcasts. Our regularly scheduled “Tip of the Iceberg” and “Deep Dive” episodes will resume next week. About the episode: The chemical company Diamond Alkali, one of the nations main producers of Agent Orange, spent years dumping chemical waste into the Passaic River and polluting Newark's Ironbound neighborhood. In the early 80's, state and federal authorities pledged to clean the mess up but today, nearly 40 years later, toxic mud still lies beneath the water. Now the cleanup is facing a $1.8 billion price tag, an uncertain timeline, and the growing threat that intense storms fueled by climate change could stir the pollution up. About the show: New Jersey is home to the largest number of Superfund sites in the country — and while federal cleanup is underway — the bigger threat to them now is climate change. Flooding, fires, and rising sea levels could make life even harder for those who live nearby. Hazard NJ digs through the muck of each contaminated site to give a clearer picture of what the threat is and what it will take to clean it up before it's too late. Hosted by journalist Jordan Gass-Poore', produced by NJ Spotlight News.

“Iron” Mike Steadman - Shares About Boxing, Entrepreneurship, Leadership and Making an Impact in Your Community Mike Steadman didn't grow up boxing, but found his love for it at the Naval Academy. He became a three-time National Collegiate Boxing Champion during his time there. After graduation he was commissioned as a Marine Corps Infantry officer and served until 2015. His experience gave him a passion to serve the inner city youth, teaching both boxing and leadership. “There's no better way to unleash your inner bad-ass than training like a boxer. You'll build the grit, confidence, and discipline that will enhance and improve every aspect of your well-being, personal development, and job performance.” Ironbound Media As a self-proclaimed renaissance man, Mike is a successful entrepreneur and founder of Ironbound media. He produces his own podcasts and helps other businesses do the same. “I feel like podcasting is the future of publishing, writing the book and stuff is awesome, but there is nothing like hearing your guests' voices and sharing it to the universe. I think it's really powerful.” Ironbound Boxing After visiting boxing gyms in various cities, Mike felt “the kids didn't have any options outside the ring, that it was either turn pro or go back to the streets. In the inner city, that's what a boxing gym does.” This frustration led to the creation of Ironbound Boxing, a reproduction of Mike's own training at the Naval Academy. “Our goal is to use the transformative powers of boxing to create champions both inside and outside of the ring. As an organization, we're committed to providing free amateur boxing training, entrepreneurial education, and employment opportunities to inner-city youth & young adults.” Curious to see who else has been in the VeteranCrowd Spotlight?

Aries Clean Technologies has proposed the construction of the Newark Biochar Production Facility near an existing site on Doremus Avenue in the Ironbound Section of Newark. If it becomes operational, it will be able to process up to 430 wet tons of domestic wastewater treated biosolids a day from New Jersey and New York. The resulting product will be sold as a concrete thickener to construction companies. The announcement has ignited a fierce backlash from members of the Ironbound and Newark community, including several nonprofits in the city. In response to the push back, city leadership has held virtual meetings to discuss the issue, and the city planning board adjourned its meeting in February where Aries was scheduled to present its proposal for approval. At the center of this resistance is the Ironbound Community Corporation (ICC). The ICC, aside from providing direct services to residents of the East Ward, has had a rich history in environmental activism and social justice work. Among the many accomplishments of the organization are the cleaning up of the Passaic River, the creation of Riverfront Park, and the continued resistance of pollution and environmental degradation in Newark. Maria Lopez-Nunez and Christian Rodriguez are deeply enmeshed in this fight and came onto the podcast to share their thoughts on why this proposal should not be allowed, how they have organized around this issue, and their hopes for a just and equitable Newark. Guests:Maria Lopez-Nunez—Maria is a Bushwick native and Deputy Director of Advocacy and Organizing at the Ironbound Community Corporation, where she fights the bad and builds the new while challenging the current political system, holding power brokers and polluters accountable while fighting for environmental, housing, immigrant, and racial justice. She has organized and helped the passage of historic and landmark city and state legislation, including the Right to Counsel, the Civilian Complaint Review Board, and the Environmental Justice Cumulative Impacts Bill. She was also featured in the documentary, The Sacrifice Zone and is a member of Right to City, Grassroots Global Justice, JUST Transition, Down Bottom Farms, and a whole host of other community-centered nonprofits. Christian Rodriguez—Christian is a Newark native, raised in the Ironbound, and a Community Organizer with the Ironbound Community Corporation, where they advocate for the right to breathe clean air, have access to clean water, to healthy food, safer housing, as well as advocating to stop racism and capitalism under the White supremacist system. They are also a youth organizer/mentor, working with young adults throughout the neighborhood, and an Urban Farmer at Down Bottom Farms, where they teach the community how to to appreciate the land and soil for healthy agriculture.

Michael Cupo Teaches Us That “It's Monday Only In Your Mind”

Michael was born in the Ironbound section of Newark NJ in 1958. Born of Italian descent, and one of six children. He graduated from East Side High School in 1976. After high school, he mainly worked in his father's restaurant until he sold it in 1986. Although he was part of a very close and loving family, he seemed to always feel like something was amiss inside. His mother and father afforded him every opportunity to get ahead in life, but he always seemed to make the wrong decision. This continued to happen until June of 1987, which is when it seemed like his life went in a completely different direction. To Michael, it seemed that way because although his life got better on the material plane, he still did not have a sense of completeness within. Quotes from Michael [03:35] The reason why a person gets addicted to anything, is because the inward tells you to reach out for something. You need something to fill your void. [10:45] We're all addicts, we just use different things. Society only addresses the ones that are devastating. [11:18] If you can't just be with yourself, without needing to reach for something, that's the question. Why? [12:02] You become distracted by the distractions that distract you. [14:17] The thought is energy. It comes into your head, and what you do with it from there determines your life. [16:20] The labels that we apply to things, destroy us. They keep us entrapped in our suffering. That's what the conditioned mind is. [24:33] It's your own conditioning that limits you. Your own mind tells you to do something, and the same mind, questions why it was done. [28:36] The more that you can spend your life in the present moment, the more at peace you're going to be. [33:25] The older you get, the more conditioning you have, and the more of a puppet you become, and society is the puppeteer. [36:00] Your body is always in the present moment, your mind is all over the place. When you develop your body as an anchor, you put yourself in harmony with life, with universal energy. Timestamps. [14:58] How Michael embarked on his book writing. [18:13] Michael's experience and lessons learned while promoting his book. [21:24] Michael's experience with a fan Do you live a life that you've always wanted and you're still not happy? Are you not getting the most out of your life? Then it's time for you to look within and find out why. Joining us in the studio today is the author of It's Monday Only in your Mind, Michael Cupo. [01:56] The story behind the book, It's Monday Only in your Mind. Michael had addiction problems when he was young. He was, however, able to conquer his addictions when he was 28; got a job, got married, and even started a family. It was 13 years later though, that the real change happened. Although Michael's life was going on just fine, Perfect job, perfect family, perfect life. He couldn't help but think of how he was going to be there for his kids. This act of unselfishness is what caused the chain reaction leading to Michael's deep reflections and thoughts about his life. [8:07] Conquering his alcohol and drug addiction. Describing it as one of the most pivotal moments of his life, Michael's eldest brother died as a result of addiction. At the time, Michael was only 26 and knee-deep in drug and alcohol addiction. The death of their eldest son broke Michael's parents, who gave Michael the ultimatum of either straightening up or getting out. This began Michael's 2-year process of quitting his addictions. [23:32] The conditioned mind. What Michael presents, is the next step in the evolutionary process. When you don't need to reach for anything and you're o.k with who you are, just the way you are, just as it is. You're not looking to change what's happening in the present moment. It's your own conditioning that limits you. Your own mind tells you to do something, and the same mind, questions why it was done. Once you're able to start looking at yourself and understanding that it's you, that it's your own mind that's the enemy, it's when you start to understand the conditioned mind and you no longer blame the world. [32:30] The rat race The beginning stages of why humanity has developed the way it has is because, from the moment you're born, you're given a name. It's your attachment to that name that the problem begins. You spend the rest of your life identifying the name with jobs, marital status, social status, likes, dislikes, this, and that, and in the process, you fail to understand. You miss the process. You fail to understand what humanity's existence is all about. As your attachments increase every day, you lose your true essence, you lose who you truly are in the process. And you start looking more outside yourself for the answers. It's nobody's fault, of course, it just how humanity and society have designed itself.

I'm Rekka, I write science fiction and fantasy as RJ Theodore. Kaelyn:00:07 And I'm Kaelyn. I am the acquisitions editor for Parvus Press. And this is my episode. Rekka:00:12 It's all yours. I'll interrupt a couple of times, but you throw things at me right back down. Kaelyn:00:17 This is my wheelhouse. This is my end of things which we are talking about. Okay. We did all this submission stuff. I've sent my manuscript, what's happening to it? Is it being well taken care of? Is someone feeding it, taking it for walks? Rekka:00:28 No, it's all trampled through the mud. Kaelyn:00:31 No, we're very nice to manuscripts and submissions. We take excellent care of them. Rekka:00:35 Also they're digital. Kaelyn:00:35 Yeah, we have a little, it's a, it's like a playpen submissions portal. They all go there and play together it's adorable. You should see it. Yes. Anyway, so yeah, we kinda, that's what we talk about. This episode is what's happening on the other end. Um, and what I'm looking for, what I'm looking at, what I'm doing and when I say, I mean general acquisitions process kind of stuff. Um, we do, you know, we do kind of mention obviously everything and everyone is different, but there are some broad strokes that are pretty universal. Rekka:01:06 Yeah. Kaelyn:01:06 So, um, you know, this is, this is sort of the end of Submissions September. Um, we've mentioned in the episode we are going to do a questions, follow up episode. Rekka:01:17 Yeah, we've been collecting questions and so we'll take the ones that we have so far, um, time being what it is. There might be more that follow up later, but these are the ones that we've collected in time to record for this month. Kaelyn:01:28 God, that whole linear time. Rekka:01:30 Time can be wobbly. New Speaker: 01:31 Yes. Um, so yeah. Anyway, hope you enjoy this episode. We hope you enjoyed submissions September. Rekka:01:37 Yes. Kaelyn:01:37 It was fun. We enjoyed doing this. Um, I enjoyed doing it. Rekka:01:41 It was awful because a lot of work. Kaelyn:01:43 Yeah. It really was. Rekka:01:45 Between scheduling all the interviews you've heard and uh, and then editing them in different weird ways depending on how we recorded them. Yeah. So, um, yeah, it's, it's been a lot of production on our part. Kaelyn:01:56 I learned a lot about audio files. Like more than - Rekka:02:00 More than you ever wanted. Kaelyn:02:01 It's more than I ever thought would be necessary for me to, so we've all grown here. Yeah. Rekka:02:06 So after this we're taking off and we're going to go mini golfing and we're going to enjoy ourselves more. We have to edit all the episodes you're going to be hearing. Kaelyn:02:14 So, um, you know, thanks for sticking with us and uh, we hope you enjoyed the episode. Rekka:02:19 Thanks everyone. Speaker 4: 02:28 [music] Kaelyn:02:37 So, last episode Submission September. Rekka:02:41 It has been a long and winding month. Kaelyn:02:43 I have not come out of this in one piece. I'm falling apart. Rekka:02:46 Yes. And that's not because of submissions. Well, actually we don't know. Kaelyn:02:49 You don't know that. Rekka:02:50 We have no proof. Kaelyn:02:53 Okay. Um, yeah. I, when I was on vacation, I broke my toe and as a result of walking funny on it, I have now messed up my lower back. I'm currently sitting propped up with a lot of pillows behind me and trying not to move too much. Um, it's not the most comfortable I've ever been in my life. Rekka:03:11 And later we're going hiking. Kaelyn:03:13 We're going to play mini golf. Rekka:03:14 That's worse because you gotta bend over. Kaelyn:03:17 Yeah, I can walk,walking's well actually that's not true. I can't really walk with - Rekka:03:22 You can do a, an imitation of a walk. Kaelyn:03:24 Yes. It's fine. Rekka is just going to carry me on her back. Rekka:03:28 Yeah. Kaelyn:03:28 Yoda-style. Rekka:03:29 Because my back's in great shape too. Kaelyn:03:31 Exactly. Rekka:03:32 So there you go. Kaelyn:03:33 Perfect. Rekka:03:33 We've got to plan. Kaelyn:03:34 Our voices are still working. That's all that matters. Rekka:03:36 Hey, you know. Kaelyn:03:37 Actually for you that's touch and go. Rekka:03:38 Yeah, that's not necessarily true, I need water. Kaelyn:03:42 Um, so yeah, we're talking today about, um, you know, we spent all of September going over everything, leading up to turning your submission into someone. So here's what's happening on the other side. Now somebody gets those submissions and reads them and has emotional reactions at Parvus that someone is me. Rekka:04:03 Yes. Kaelyn:04:04 So, you know, as I said in the beginning of every episode, I'm, I'm the acquisitions editor for Parvus Press. So, uh, you're not sending your work into a black hole. You're sending it to me. Um, and I'm going to look at it and say, sure, let's move forward with this. Or thank you, but we can't accept this right now. Um, so before we really get into this, there was one thing I wanted to clarify and that was that I was surprised when I started getting into this that I'm actually a little bit of a rare breed. There are not a lot of strictly acquisitions editors, any- Rekka:04:43 Yeah. Kaelyn:04:44 Anymore. Yeah. Um, a lot of places now, especially especially in our genre and Scifi and fantasy, um, I'd imagine across most places, um, editors kind of are doing their own acquisition process. They're kind of picking what they want to work on. Um, larger publishing houses will absolutely have more of a system in place just because they have to. Um, but a lot of times editors, um, especially when dealing with agents will kind of pick and choose their own stuff. Now they still typically have to take it to a publisher, to a senior editor, and it still has to go before the committee, so to speak. Rekka:05:23 Right. Kaelyn:05:24 They don't get to just say, Yup, this one I'm taking this. Um, they still have to get it, I don't want to say approved - Rekka:05:30 But kind of, I mean, like it's a group decision, um, because it's for the entire company, you know, the, the book and its sales will benefit the company and it's a production costs will come from the company's coffers. So it's not just an editor can decide on their own in most cases. Now maybe there are editors who just get a budget and they're like, here's your budget, turn it into something for the company. Kaelyn:05:54 Those editors have have multiple awards. Rekka:05:56 Yes, exactly. Kaelyn:05:57 And the sales and marketing team's also gonna have like something to say about it. Rekka:06:01 Right. Kaelyn:06:01 But the whole point here is that, um, while there are definitely the acquisitions editors, acquiring editors, whatever you want to call them, absolutely still do exist. Um, especially if you're have having an open submissions period because someone's gotta be in charge of, it's me at Parvus. Rekka:06:20 Um, so in a way, would you say that an acquisitions editor is more like a project manager these days? Kaelyn:06:27 Um, I'm not sure project manager is the exact correct analogy, but yes, and similar. Rekka:06:35 I don't think so, but yeah. Kaelyn:06:36 Yeah. It's, well, because I really more of a filter. I'm the first one you have to get past, right? Rekka:06:45 When you delegate from there and you, you make decisions, having seen the broad landscape as a whole. Kaelyn:06:51 Yeah, it's definitely that. Yeah. And an acquisitions editor will also work very closely with a sales and marketing team to kind of determine like, Rekka:06:58 Is there a vision? Kaelyn:06:59 Here's what I think we can do with this book and here's the plan I have for it and here's who we can sell it to, et cetera. How to position it. Rekka:07:07 Yeah, exactly. Kaelyn:07:08 So on my end, I'm taking all of that into consideration when I'm looking at these things. So, you know, you submit online, I've got a submissions manager, I've got a portal that I log into and I see everyone's query letters and their submissions and um, and I just dive in and this is very typical. You're going to get into the submissions manager. They're going to give you, um, you know, the steps of how to do all of this. If you go to Parvus's website, we have a video up of, you know, here's how you walk through your submissions process. Um, usually it generates like a number, an ID of some kind, just so you know, you can reference that. Rekka:07:51 Yeah. I like an order number. Kaelyn:07:53 Yeah, exactly. I referenced them a lot because I have a notebook that I keep track of all of this stuff in and um, the, this is going to come as a galloping shock to everyone I'm sure, but a lot of the same words get used in titles and stuff. And so I sometimes actually just remember things by their number because you get so many of the same words popping up in titles. I don't want to confuse anything. Rekka:08:20 In the noun of Noun or something. Kaelyn:08:22 Yes, exactly The This of The Thing. Yes. Um, so we've talked a lot in previous episodes for submission, September about a lot of do's and don'ts and we'll get to some more of that at the end. But - Rekka:08:39 But this one isn't so much about what you would be doin, the writer as what Kaelyn is experiencing on the back end in terms of what she receives, what her process is, her thoughts and like the decisions she's making and how she comes to them. Kaelyn:08:55 And of course I speak for all acquisitions editors. Rekka:08:58 Absolutely, 100%. Everything you hear is uh, like Ironbound. Kaelyn:09:03 We are a collective hive mind. I'm communicating with them right now mentally. Rekka:09:07 That is not true. This is the opposite, uh Kaelyn is an individual and works for one company and other companies may do things differently and contain other individuals who are not part of a hive mind, whatever, Kaelyn would like you to believe about her supernatural abilities. Kaelyn:09:22 Um, it's true. I'm only part of the only part of the Parvus Hive Mind. Rekka:09:27 Yeah. So, um, of course what we're saying is that your results may vary with another publisher. Um, that publisher will have their own practices and their own, you know, way of going about this. So, um, this is just to give you some insight, but it is not the end all be all encyclopedia entry on how this do. Kaelyn:09:47 Now, that said, I will say that some of the things I'm about to say right now, they're pretty universal across the board. One of the things is if I open your submission and you have not followed the submission guidelines, that's probably gotten tossed right away. Um, it's, yeah, we've talked about this a little bit, but it's one of those things that I have hundreds of these. Rekka:10:08 And you're not going to pick the person that's clearly not going to follow instructions even from the get go when they are supposed to be making their best impression. And can't even follow the instructions you have given and laid out for them. Kaelyn:10:23 It's harsh to say, but I don't have time for that. I don't mean that to be callous. I don't mean it to be rude. It's a business decision. Rekka:10:28 It's your first business decision of the query. Kaelyn:10:30 It's a business decision. But it's also, I mean, I literally don't have the time for this. Um, so if you have done something that, you know, you haven't followed the submissions guidelines, there is a very, very, very good chance, not just me, most anyone interested in acquiring books are just going to go in the garbage. Um, so that's sad. You know, let's say they've got your submission lined up and correct and everything. Um, this is something maybe everyone doesn't want to hear, but I probably have a list of things that I'm interested in. Rekka:11:05 Right. Kaelyn:11:06 It's not carved in stone. It's definitely not, you know, like pleasant surprises. Absolutely. I love pleasant surprises. Um, but every time we have an open submissions period, uh, we do put, you know, like Kaelyn is interested in this, Colin is interested in this and we do kind of say like, Hey, you know, these are what we're especially excited to look for. Pleasant surprises absolutely happen. Um, but I am kind of on the lookout for certain things and I, we'll come out and admit this, that there are certain things that I'm kind of like, I can't do anymore of this, or we just don't have a space for urban fantasy right now. Rekka:11:49 And some of this is going to be your bias, just to be clear, like you're human and if you are sick of certain kind of story, there's probably a good chance that it's not something that the team as a whole is really open to. Kaelyn:11:55 Yeah. And also it might be, well we just acquired two urban fantasies. I can't do another one right now. We have to change it up, be a little, you know, more diverse in our selections. Um, so that said, you know, I'm going through everything. Um, the Colin method is being applied here. Rekka:12:24 Before we get to that, can I ask? Kaelyn:12:26 Sure. Rekka:12:26 Cause I don't know the answer to this yet. Um, so say you put out a call for military science fiction. Kaelyn:12:31 Yes. Rekka:12:32 Is there anything in your system that indicates that that's in a query so you could like sort filter for the military science fiction? So when you log into our submissions manager and um, I would imagine a lot of places do this. Kaelyn:12:49 You can select which genre you're writing in. Rekka:12:52 Even down to the sub genre? Kaelyn:12:53 Oh yeah, well, I mean, we have, you know, for us, we have a lot of different sub genres you can pick from because you know, we only do, well, that's why I said even because it seems like there's a new one every day, so - Rekka:13:04 I didn't know if it was just, if you've got the basic, um, you know, book code, library codes, you've got custom ones in there. Kaelyn:13:12 Oh, we've got, yeah, we've got some interesting ones. I sometimes I want to go in there and just add things as a joke to see if anything, anyone picks up on it. Yeah. Um, so we, um, you know, I'm, I'm using the Colin Method, which for those of you who. Rekka:13:27 Passed that episode. Kaelyn:13:37 Missed that episode, I know we've run, your first sentence is buying me your first paragraph, your first paragraph's by me, your first page, your first page is buying me your first chapter. Every little bit I read that I like, I'm gonna keep going farther. Rekka:13:41 And back to the start of that, your query buys, the first sentence buys opening the document. Kaelyn:13:45 Yes. Rekka:13:46 And so you do read the queries before you? Kaelyn:13:48 Oh, absolutely. Absolutely. Um, and the reason for that is I need to know what I'm getting into when I'm opening the manuscripts to set up an expectation. Rekka:14:02 But also to like an energy sort of allotment. New Speaker: 15:09 I am not just purchasing your book. I am purchasing you as a person and a concept and a brand that sounds illegal. I am purchasing your personality. Rekka:15:21 You are investing in the author. Let's, let's choose some. Kaelyn:15:26 Okay. Rekka:15:27 2019. Kaelyn:15:28 All right. Rekka:15:29 Terminology. Kaelyn:15:29 Well I mean we are buying your book but we're buying into you. Rekka:15:32 Yeah. Kaelyn:15:34 And that you as an author are important as the brand. But also I need to make sure that you're not posting awful things, awful things. I need to like, you know, I think we will get to this more when I get to that, but that part of this, but I need to know about you. There's no such thing as writing a book in a vacuum. Rekka:15:59 Right. So let me ask, so you said that sometimes there are slush readers and sometimes it's just you. So if a slush reader turns away a book, do you ever go, oh wait, I want to look at that before we actually turn it away? Kaelyn:16:23 A lot of times with slush readers, okay. There, the parameters of, you know, them are completely, are different all over the place. Um, I tell them if this seems even a little interesting. Rekka:16:31 Okay. Yup, Yup. Kaelyn:16:32 Yeah. Kick it up. Um, a lot of times for slush readers, like the one we most used them for was when we did our anthology because short stories are easier to do and that was very important for anonymous submissions. One of the other reasons for that is I might send it to someone else. Um, I might send it to editors within our company. Um, we have freelance editors that work with us. Sometimes I might send it to them. So that's why I want to make sure there's no information on there because I just want them to get a manuscript that's come from me that I already said this is cool. Rekka:17:25 Yeah. Kaelyn:17:27 And circulate it to the other. So that's kind of the next step. If you're, if this is something that I'm very interested in, what I'll do is I'll say like, oh, okay, uh, Ryan Kelley, he likes this kind of stuff. I'm going to send this over to him and see if that's something he would be interested in working on. Rekka:17:45 Right. Kaelyn:17:45 Because as the acquisitions editor, I don't get to just you, you're doing this now. Um, editor isn't, you know, Rekka, I'm sure you can attest to this because you've worked with a couple of different editors just at Parvus now they've got to be passionate about the stuff they're working on. Rekka:18:02 Absolutely. Yeah. I would not want an editor who is only mildly interested in my story or not at all. Kaelyn:18:10 Yeah. If you're getting assigned things that's well like, okay for copy, edit the final copy, edit fine, get as many eyes on it as possible and someone can just go through and make sure the commas are in the correct place. Rekka:18:23 But yeah, if I'm working on someone with a developmental edit. Kaelyn:18:27 Yeah, no, they, they need to be passionate and excited about this. So this is where when I said earlier how editors kind of pick what they want to work on, this is where that comes in. So like, you know, let's say for the sake of round numbers, I started out with a hundred submissions. Maybe 10 of them were interesting enough. We're going to take three books. I will send the ones that I think would work best to the editor, I think would work best with them. Rekka:18:56 Right. Kaelyn:18:57 And they'll take a look and decide, okay, well I have room on my calendar for one more book. I want it to be this one. So that sounds like it's the end of the story. But here's the thing, it's not always, and I'm going to stop here because I want to backtrack a bit and say this is assuming an open submissions call and you don't have an agent. Rekka:19:20 Right. That's important to know. Kaelyn:19:22 Yes. We should've said that earlier. Yes. So if you have an agent, what's happening is instead of just going through this open submissions call, your agent is typically directly in touch with either like me and acquisitions editor or editors specifically that they work with and know, and this is when I said that, you know, editors a lot of times pick their own things frequently. it's through relationships with agents that they have or things that people send them directly to them. Rekka:19:50 Yeah. This is why you don't see a lot of open submissions calls at a lot of publishers because the editors have already developed relationships with agents and they're, they're getting their slate filled before they could even consider having an open submissions call. Kaelyn:20:06 Yeah. And a lot of them, a lot of editors will not take unsolicited manuscripts because they just, they'll be inundated. Rekka:20:13 Right. It's a lot of work to go through all these. Kaelyn:20:15 Yeah. So you have an agent that you've worked with before, you trust their, their taste, their um, screening process. Rekka:20:23 You know, you work well together. You know, that if they have an author in their stable, that chances are it's someone you could work with because you know that that author would have to work with this agent. So it's almost like a, it's an endorsement. Yes. It's a patronage, an endorsement sort of thing that, that they can trust you because they know your agent. Kaelyn:20:46 So, that's, you know, that's where a lot of editors are frequently getting it. And that's part of the reason, you know, we talked last week was all about agents and stuff and these mythical creatures, Unicorns, why they're so important. And you know, it's, it's hard to say because we do open submission calls a lot and I like that we do them, but having a literary agent is very good. Yeah. And it's, uh, if nothing else, it's a foot in the door. It's like a little badge you get. I've got a literary agent. Rekka:21:23 Yeah. It's a little more fast track to the front of the line. Yeah. It's, um, it's guaranteeing that there's somebody who's gonna speak for your book, um, more than just your query letter. Kaelyn:21:34 Right. Um, and I mean with Parvus, we've had every book that is released as of when this is coming out. Rekka:21:42 Right. You got to be specific. Kaelyn:21:43 We've gotten through our open submissions call, um, that will change soon. But every single one of our books that we've put out already have come through our open submission call. Rekka:21:54 And that was pretty intentional on Parvus's part. Kaelyn:21:56 Yeah. Um, it, I mean, I like it. I like that we do that. Um, I like that we can find books from people that just wanted to write a good book and submitted it. And we were like, yep, we'll publish that. Rekka:22:09 Which was kind of, I mean, having talked to Colin before in other interviews, that was sort of his entire concept. Kaelyn:22:14 Yeah. Rekka:22:14 For wanting to open a publishing house. Kaelyn:22:16 Exactly. Rekka:22:17 To find the books that are out there that he knew was out there that are great and written by passionate people who love writing. Kaelyn:22:23 Yeah, exactly. So, um, so we found a book by a passionate person who loves writing and - Rekka:22:30 Who is adorable. Kaelyn:22:31 And is adorable. And they found, we have an editor who's really interested in it. So what happens next? Rekka:22:39 You tear that book to shreds. We start over. Kaelyn:22:41 No. Well before that you're probably gonna get a phone call. Rekka:22:44 Oh yeah. Okay. Sorry. I just remember the painful part. Phone call with lots of fun. Kaelyn:22:49 Um, you're probably going to get a phone call from me, but then I need to know about you. I need to make sure that if I go to your Twitter feed, it is not full of horrible misogynistic jokes and pictures. I need to make sure that you're not writing about your favorite ways to torture animals. And yeah, I know we like to think that we write books in a vacuum. We don't, I don't care if you've written the greatest thing in the history of literature. If you're a shitty person, we can't publish that and we're not going to and we don't want to. And maybe some you listening are going, well, shouldn't the book just stand on its own merit? It doesn't. Rekka:23:48 It can't. Kaelyn:23:49 It can't these days. It can't because it's not, we're not simply purchasing your book. We are investing in you as a person, as a brand, as an author. Rekka:23:59 And when they invest in an author, that author's name becomes attached to the company. Kaelyn:24:07 Exactly. And we're small, but even the bigger places, we, no one wants to affiliate themselves with crappy people. Rekka:24:15 And you see this happening a lot, um, problematic or otherwise in social media where somebody spouts off and suddenly they've lost their contract. Kaelyn:24:25 Yeah. Rekka:24:26 And you know, better or worse. I mean, we're not going to comment on different - Kaelyn:24:28 Yeah. That's uh - Rekka:24:29 situations. Some go, some go sideways real fast, you know. Kaelyn:24:33 And that's, that's a whole other thing. But the other part of this is that besides just making sure that, you know, you don't have a secret life, um, you know, with the KKK, I also want to talk to you and get a feel for what I think working with you will be like. Rekka:24:48 Right. Kaelyn:24:49 Because if I get on a phone call with you and oh, it's about time you guys called. I was wondering when I was going to hear from you this, this a 90 day turnaround. I mean, I should have been right at the top of your list. I just called - Rekka:25:07 You just found yourself at the bottom. Kaelyn:25:11 I just called to say, we hope you're having a good day. Bye. Um, you know, I want to kind of get an idea also for what you'd be willing to do with the book because as Rekka said, tear the book to shreds that they've already got ideas. The thing is, before I call you, I've already talked to your editor, who I've already said, hey, so what do you think you're going to want to work with on this? What do you, you know, what's the scale of the changes and revisions you're going to want them to make? Um, so you're probably wondering, why doesn't the editor call me? They might, it depends. It's just, you know, I'm the acquisitions editor. I'm the one who kind of - Rekka:25:48 Spearheads this operation. Kaelyn:25:49 Yeah. And it's just a little more of a streamlined process where, you know, you're going to talk to me first. It's just, just how it goes. Your editor might be on the call with me. Very possible. Um, so once you get past that, then it's, you know, into contract negotiations and I won't go too much into that right now because we're kind of, that's moving out of the submission phase of things. But then that's, I mean that's the end of the story then. Rekka:26:14 Yeah. Kaelyn:26:17 Is the contract. Rekka:26:18 Then you, from the contract. Once that's all complete, it's get to work, you know, you get your revision notes from your editor and you move into the production and then you're done. This is this whole, uh, Submission September thing is behind you. At least for this book. Kaelyn:26:32 Yeah. So, um, that's, that's kind of like, I mean, it's weird to feel like we've come to a hard stop, but like that - Rekka:26:40 That's what happens. It goes off your plate at that point, unless you decide to be the editor yourself. Kaelyn:26:44 You know, it's the submissions process I think in general is, you know, well, how, how do you go through it? Slowly at first and then suddenly all at once. Rekka:26:54 Right? Kaelyn:26:55 It's, it's a lot of hurry up and wait. Rekka:26:57 And then, and then it's everything. Kaelyn:27:02 Things can progress very quickly.Um, so that's kind of where you end up. Uh, we did, you know, I wrote down some things just to, you know, sort of run through some do's and don'ts about this kind of stuff. Rekka:27:12 A couple of questions that, you know, pop up in my mind as I'm listening to you talk. Kaelyn:27:16 Yeah. Um, you know, again, please read the submissions guidelines. I know we talked about this already, but just the fastest way to get your book taken out of consideration is to not do what they ask you to do. Rekka:27:30 Is to display that you think you are above that process or that you don't know how to read. Kaelyn:27:37 And it is so easy to just do this. This is not, this isn't a monumental insurmountable task and no one is going to put submissions guidelines up there that are like now once you have killed to the owl, you must address the letter to us in its blood. Yeah. Rekka:27:55 Although that is a nice additional filter you could use. Kaelyn:27:58 I mean, um, I don't want people killing owls though. Rekka:28:01 I was just going to say as to figure out who is willing to kill an owl and you don't want those authors, but that's sort of backwards. Kaelyn:28:06 Um, I like owls. Rekka:28:07 Yeah. So like I know having gone through the process of submitting things before that it is nerve wracking to think like, am I doing this right? Are they gonna like me? Do I come off as - Kaelyn:28:22 Please like me. Rekka:28:22 Um, do I come off as someone who's, you know, professional, et Cetera. The most professional thing you can do is follow the set of instructions they give you and it makes it a heck of a lot easier to click send on something when you know, like, okay, I have done steps one through five out of five and now I can send to this because I've given them exactly what they asked for. There's nothing left for me to provide here. Kaelyn:28:47 You actually even then touched on something that I think also is overlooked frequently, which is professionalism. So in my company we publish science fiction and fantasy and there's certainly like a tone and attitude a, it's fun that comes along with it. Absolutely feel free, especially in email correspondence to joke around with me because you will frequently get email responses from me that contain ridiculous things. But part of that is I'll cop to it here and now part of that is a ploy on my end that I'm trying to put the person at ease. Like it's cool, like don't. Um, but that said, and when I was on a Rekka's, um - Rekka:29:31 Podcast. Kaelyn:29:31 Previous podcast, Hybrid, Author um, one of the things I pointed out that a lot of people don't think about is your email address. If you have an email address that you've had since like college and what do we call it? SnotMonster27, you know, whatever. Unless your book is about 27 snot monsters, maybe try to come up with one that's like just your name somehow. Um, you know, if you have like some kind of, I won't say ridiculous, but maybe like silly things that are like hold over from your early Reddit days that you know, you still use, it's not a bad idea when you're getting ready to go through this process, one, to have a separate email account to manage all of these things. Rekka:30:14 Right. Kaelyn:30:15 But two, also something just a little more. Rekka:30:18 Grounded? Neutral? Kaelyn:30:19 Yeah. Neutral's good. Just like maybe just your name or maybe you know, RekkaWritesBooks@gmail. Like, you know that you can still be fun with it and you know, but just something to kind of be aware of is, you know, like I got, I get some things some times and people have stuff in their signature that they don't realize is like things you should well, things you should maybe change before you send this to someone you're hoping to work with professionally. Rekka:30:47 Gotcha. Kaelyn:30:48 Um, so just kind of be aware of that and um, all kind of transition this into the next thing, which I think you were touching on, which is emailing and asking questions. Rekka:31:02 Yeah. Kaelyn:31:04 Absolutely do it. If you are unsure of something, I get - Rekka:31:08 I have not seen a submissions page, like the guidelines that don't include an email address for you to ask questions before you submit incorrectly. Kaelyn:31:15 Exactly. And um, I will say sometimes I do get questions where I'm like, did you read the submissions guidelines? But, um, we had a problem with our submissions portal this time, just something clicked off and wasn't supposed to. And I got a whole bunch of emails and we were like, oh shoot, that's a problem. And we fixed it. And I get right back to those people and say, thank you, we fixed it. Rekka:31:39 Yeah, go ahead. Kaelyn:31:40 Now, um, if you have a question about like, you know, listen, I'm not sure this is what you're looking for. I mean, my answer to that is always, I'm not either, send it over. Let's see. You know, I'm never gonna - Rekka:31:51 It is open submissions. Kaelyn:31:52 Yeah. So, yeah. Um, but along those lines and going back to the professionalism, don't start your emails off with Yo. Um, I'm - Rekka:32:04 Kaelyn is from New York. She gets that enough. Kaelyn:32:05 I am frequently taken aback by the crassness of some of the emails that I get that - take the time and write, you know, dear whoever. And you know, like at Parvus you can just write "Dear Hive Mind," and I mean, yeah, you can still be cute about it, but like light about it. This is to whom it may concern or, you know, I, I even get the ones that are like, "Hi, I'm not sure who I'm supposed to be addressing this to", but you know, just - Rekka:32:41 You've tried. Kaelyn:32:42 Yes. Um, Rekka:32:44 Don't lean far into like, I don't even care who this is addressing. Yo. Kaelyn:32:47 Um, I get emails that are just like the, hey, what do I do about this? Like take a minute and say hi, I'm so and so. I'm submitting to your open call. I'm having a problem with this. Be Professional, be considerate, be courteous, be polite. Rekka:33:06 Yeah. Kaelyn:33:07 Because right off that if you don't think I am mentally, I am not mentally making a note of this person and when I get to their submission, because what did I say before when I talked to you, I want an idea of what it's going to be like to work with you. Rekka:33:21 Right. So you've already provided your first clue. Kaelyn:33:25 Everything, every interaction you have with anyone in any professional setting really. But especially if it's something like this, you're, this is all information we're putting away about working with you. Rekka:33:38 This is like showing up to the job interview and you're ripped up sweat pants that you've been wearing for four days. Kaelyn:33:43 Yes. Yeah. So just, you know, be cognizant of that kind of stuff that yes, we're a fun organization. We're cool people we like interacting with and this isn't just Parvus, this is most places. Okay. We don't know you. Rekka:34:01 Yeah. Kaelyn:34:02 Yet. Not yet. So just be aware of that. And first impression first. Rekka:34:08 Yeah. There's a reason your mom and your grandma havetalked about that. Kaelyn:34:11 Yeah. And I know it sounds silly. It's really not. First impressions are very important. Um, so that's, you know, it's kind of the do's and don'ts a little bit, um, with, you know, other stray submissions related things. Rekka:34:27 Right. Kaelyn:34:28 Um, one thing and actually Rekka should be the one to talk about. This is uh organizing who you're submitting to and tracking that is very important, Rekka:34:41 Right. So they're um, depending on how you query, um, well, okay, so acquiring agents, there's a whole system for that. Kaelyn:34:49 Yes. Rekka:34:49 And much like the submissions grinder for short fiction submissions, it will kind of keep track of stuff for you. But this is the day and age where you never know what's going to strike on the Internet. You want to have a local copy that's tracing all this stuff. So I recommend if you can download, um, your submissions history, uh, in some way to like a excel file spreadsheet. Do that. But at the very least maintain your own spreadsheet and say, you know who, what story and if you have a tendency to keep working on stories after you submit them, like what revision, um, then what, you know the date, the publisher and if you like, you can copy paste your query letter into that, the next cell and in excel in the spreadsheet. And then you know what you've said to them last time. So the next time you submit you don't send them the exact same words again. And also, um, you know the, the salutation at the beginning, the little opening warmup, text. Kaelyn:35:55 Make sure you change that for - Rekka:35:56 Make sure that that is not identical with just the names, you've done, you know, find and replace for each, um, each place you submit it to. And then when they acknowledge it, what, um, what follow up conversations you have and the dates and stuff like that, just keep track of it. Because this is stuff you're going to want to refer back to at some point. And if you, um, you know, if you have questions for them, you can write those questions down and the answers and you can just all keep it in one basic like real simple spreadsheet dashboard where you have everything and you can do tabs at the bottom. So each piece, you know, each manuscript you work on has a different tab and, or each publisher has a different tab. Kaelyn:36:39 I think we're gonna have Rekka do some kind of like a youtube instructional video on the best way to do, Rekka:36:46 I don't know if I'm the best one because I don't really have a system I, I queried to Parvus and uh, it was accepted. Kaelyn:36:52 We're going to have you develop a system and um, and along those lines, one thing that I should've brought up earlier, one of the good things to keep track of is if they say expect a response within this time, if not, feel free to follow up. Rekka:37:07 Yeah. So we've covered that in the previous one. You can even like add a formula to your spreadsheet that calculates the day for you. Like this day, you know from Column D add 90 days and column E displays the day that you sh- you can follow up if you haven't heard. Here's the thing, cause we can't do math in our heads, apparently not. Kaelyn:37:27 If you submit January sixth - 15th and they say 90 days, 90 days is not March 15th I know in that's three months in the calendar in your mind, but 90 days is April 15th ish, whatever it is. The way the, actually that is because of February. So - Rekka:37:45 February makes up for the third one. Kaelyn:37:47 So get out, like if you don't want to do in the spreadsheet, get out a calendar and count out 90 days because 90 days is not three months. Rekka:37:59 Yeah. Kaelyn:38:00 90 days is 90 days. Rekka:38:02 Right. And you can, if you find counting to 90 difficult because of distractions or whatever, or nerves, just Google. What's the date? 90 days from today, Kaelyn:38:15 Because there is, I don't know if this is just a pet peeve of mine, but when I get ones that are like, hi, I submitted 90 days ago and I go and look and I go, no you didn't. You submitted 60 days ago, but thanks. And the ones that I, it's amazing. It's always the people that submitted like the first week and it's like you could not have submitted 90 days ago. We were not open for submissions 90 days ago. And then it puts me in the position of I don't want to write the back and make them feel silly. Like I want like I don't want to have to go 'Actually you submitted 60 days. Like I'll talk to you in a month.'. Rekka:38:48 Yeah. Kaelyn:38:49 Um, so yeah, that's um, that's kind of the, the end of the submissions process is the contract then. So that's also the end of Submissions September. Rekka:39:02 Almost. Kaelyn:39:02 Almost. Cause we have one last uh, one last treat here. Rekka:39:06 Probably be a quick episode I think. Kaelyn:39:07 Very quick. We're actually going to try and keep it at, we keep, we always say we're going to and then we never, yeah. Rekka:39:13 Yeah. Kaelyn:39:13 We've got, we're gonna do one last episode. We are going to really try to keep it short. It's just we did, we got a few questions and we want to kind of round out Submissions September. Rekka:39:25 Yes. And thank you to everyone who did send the questions. If you feel like we skipped over your question, we promise you we didn't. Um, but we can cover it in another episode. Kaelyn:39:34 Yeah. Well, and I mean, who knows, maybe that could turn into an episode. Rekka:39:38 Yeah. I might end up being an entire episode on So-and-so. I'm, we hear you if you sent them. Thank you. And uh, we will get to your questions. Either you'll hear it in the next episode or we will, uh, talk about it in the future. Kaelyn:39:51 Yep. So, um, that's the end of the official episodes of Submissions September we will be back, uh, and I guess we're going to do less than a week because we're gonna yeah, we're going to put that up the last day of September. Rekka:40:04 Just to stick the whole - Kaelyn:40:05 Just to round it out. Yeah, exactly. Rekka:40:08 And then we will have- Kaelyn:40:09 We'll be back to our regular schedule. Rekka:40:12 Yes. Kaelyn:40:12 Of every other week. Rekka:40:13 Yeah. New Speaker: 40:14 So thank you for sticking with us all September. We know this was a lot of listening to us talk Rekka:40:19 Hopefully. It was exciting for you because these are the things that people are always wondering but not necessarily finding answers to. Kaelyn:40:25 Yes.

Everything Charles Rosen has ever done comes into play while creating and running Ironbound Hard Cider. From his training as a lawyer, to his days making movies in Hollywood, to the time he spent traveling the country during the 2008 presidential campaign, to his experience starting an ad agency with socially-minded clients, it all informs his vision and every daily interaction. That's important because Iron Bound is about a lot more than making cider that will remain fresh and pure no matter what. It's also about regenerating farms and people with all sorts of other products born from a very special place, enriching the lives of everyone who participates.

Newark, New Jersey is more than meets the eye. There's an under-the-radar food movement going on "The Gateway City," and we ventured across the Hudson River to check it out! We start at Philip's Academy Charter School to see how Ecospaces Education is transforming the way students eat and incorporating food into curriculum. Then, we head to the Ironbound neighborhood to taste the historically-charged spirits of All Points West Distillery and some of the finest presunto ibérico at Caseiro E Bom. The grand finale of our Newark tour is tour of AeroFarms, the world's largest vertical indoor farm. We bring you inside to hear how they use aeroponics to grow local leafy greens year-round with 390 times more productivity and 95% less water than field farming. This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York State Department of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the City Council. Meat + Three is a production of Heritage Radio Network, the world’s pioneer food radio station. Learn more at heritageradionetwork.org. Meat + Three is powered by Simplecast.
