h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I thought I'd lend my congratulations, as I was the one who recommended this entry. Well done, purple dragon

Cheers to everyone!

I'm quietly excited that I've had something accepted for the edited guide. Sounds nicely official.

Hello Purple Dragon!

I'm quite chuffed that I've been sent your Hamster Thrwoing entry to Sub Edit. I've got my copy of it at A866900, if you'd like to drop by and see how it looks. That is, of course, the Edited Copy that will go to the Front Page and into the immortality of the Edited Guide. Your original copy won't be changed by any editors, and is yours forever.

I've just gone over and made a couple of small edits; I think I'm done. Do let me know if you have any comments, questions, corrections, etc. Otherwise, I'll give it another careful read-through, and submit it to the Towers for final polishing later today, or tomorrow.

After that, it's hard to say how long the wait it for the Front Page. Sometimes entries get through the queue in a week or two; some take months. It all has to do with trying to get a variety of entries on the Front Page each day, and also which entries get artwork added to them.

Anyway, congratulations again , and thanks for such a fun entry!
