Reassurance, work/career department

[redbird]

A few weeks ago, the company I was discussing doing freelance writing for (it turned out they want a writer more than an editor, which is fine with me) sent me a contract. I wrote back, asking for a couple of changes, and heard nothing.

This morning, I sent a brief email, asking where we stood. I got an almost-immediate reply, saying basically "I got it and forwarded it to $CTO. It seems to have fallen through the cracks. I'll follow up on that and get you a revised contract as soon as it's ready."

That was followed within the half hour by a message saying I should expect a revised contract next week.

I am greatly reassured.

With a bit of luck, they'll get me some work before I go away for New Year's (my usual week in the Frozen North).

Good luck with this. I'm sure they are glad to have a writer like you on board -- it's good that you sent them the follow-up email.
