Q: Thanks so much for the advice on your site. Not only is it valuable, it's also encouraging. Us aspiring-writer types need that from time to time.
Here's my question: A week ago, a paper that's twice as big as the one I'm at flew me up for interviews. It seemed to go pretty well, and they said they'd call me during the week.
I still haven't heard back. Is that a sign that I flubbed it?
Thanks for your help!

A: Well, it's not an encouraging sign, but I wouldn't spend a lot of time trying to guess what it means. Pick up the phone or drop an e-mail and ask.
The fact that they flew you there in the first place is a sign that they are serious about you.
And good luck!
Does anyone else have a perspective on this?
