Thanks, Ben. Whether or not Thought Thinkers is in the Boost program wouldn't affect whether or not I submit; I've had at least a dozen stories Boosted in pubs that weren't. I was just curious.

The reason why I haven't submitted is that my essays tend to not to focus on general topics but to be hard-wired to a literary, political, or other issue in the news. But I’ll see if I can come up with one that's not so news-oriented. Much appreciate your offer to write for you! Thanks again.
