I give it five stars not because it's hot poopy but because if you are a person who writes for publication in newspapers and magazines you will follow this thing to the letter or you and your work will follow your ego to the slush pile. Always keep the latest copy handy (The A.P., publishes a different edition every year.). I skipped last year because I never wrote for publication in 2018. BUT, had I chosen to do so, I probably would have got a new copy of A.P.'s miserable rag before I did any work.

Best of luck to all dissenters.
