The Never-ending FAQ: after an acceptance, your next submission

Fighting the urge to run another romantic story on Valentine’s day, we decided to stick with expanding the FAQ. The Never-ending FAQ will continue to run on Wednesdays, until such time as readers run out of questions, which doesn’t seem likely any time soon.  Published: 14 February 2024
