Hello Anna. . . Long time reader, first time writer. Luv yer show.
I don't understand why using too many short fiction credits can hurt my chances. I always figured that it was an easy way to demonstrate that I'm publishable. Getting the endorsement of a wide variety of editors, each with their own personalities and pitfalls, seemed like a good way to convey overall competence.
Can you elaborate a little more on why this has a downside? Thanks so much!
