ACIA Happenings.

Received yesterday and read this morning. I want to publicly declare that an article that I submitted was changed without my prior approval and my name was put on the article.

I run a business and am appalled that this would be published with grammatical errors and my name put on it. I have written to the person responsible for the newsletter, but as many of you know me, I want to let you know that I do know how to write and speak.

I am a published author for the oil and gas industry and have received four award for my advertising work. Seeing this article changed without my approval seriously upsets my business senses.

More than likely, I will not submit another article, as it is clear this publication is not taken seriously nor is it proofread.

If this was an email blast from yesterday, I never received it. The last I received was about the tennis clinic.

@Sammee
No. It was the Happenings newsletter.
@susanbanthony. Read it and it is clear. If you're not a recipient, this post is not relevant.

@BusyMommy
Yes. I'm not here to bash anyone. I just wanted to clear the air. Whomever prints this should double check the submissions.

@TheCatsMeow I scanned that paper but didn't really read it. I will go back and look if I didn't trash it but I think I did. You have every right to be upset.

But seriously, we still know that you are awesome!

I've received correspondence about this. Very gracious, I must say. We will work together to improve this publication in the future.

Proof reading helps
