Acronyms. We know them, we use them. Often, we write by them. Some of these are obvious, but bear with me…
POV – Point of view
ms – Manuscript
SASE – Self-addressed stamped envelope
IRC – International reply coupon
FNASR – First North American Serial Rights
BIC – Bottom in chair
BICHOK – Bottom in chair, hands on keyboard
Let me add a new one.
JHS – Just Hit Send
What is Just Hit Send?
It’s the philosophy I’ve been writing by lately.
In either September or October, I joined a challenge on the freelance writing board of the Absolute Write Water Cooler. (There’s another acronym for you: AWWC.)
I started small. Compared to some of them, my goals are still small. But I am submitting. That’s the point.
You could say JHS is a complement to the BICHOK principle.
I mean, really, if I’m going to write it, I might as well send it. And soon I’ll start getting paying acceptances.
Very well said….love it….I use so many of these daily, I didn’t even realize how much I cut to just acronyms to save time…how about
LOL

Anymore out there ladies?….Tabs
I figure I didn’t even scratch the tip of the ice berg with the acronyms I included. At the same time, though, I didn’t want to bore everyone with just a list of seemingly unrelated letters witho no point to the madness.
(Yes, sometimes I have a point.
)
Sometimes I don’t even remember my
own acronyms.
