Hey you guys.

I forgot to write about this a few days ago, but I subscribed to the online companion to the Writer's Market book. You know that thick ass book with a list of publishers? Yeah that one. I had an old one, but it wasn't divided into genres, but the online portion can be sorted like that. I've found a few prospective publishers and I'm saving them to my folder. Possibly an agent too if I can ever finish everything.

I was on the College Confidential website and I saw someone asking if SSI counted towards the EFC and it turns out that those benefits don't and both my mother and I receive disability, so what does this mean? Will it mean that on my app, I technically won't have any income? How is this going to work?

I started reading the Feminist Activism book haha. I like it so far. I can't just choose one book to read, I want to read them all!

It shouldn't be a problem that your EFC is 0. If neither you nor your mother filed taxes, you'll probably have to have her sign a non-taxfiler's affidavit to send in instead of filling in tax/income information. the FAFSA will ask if anyone in the house is getting disability, TANF, etc. It shouldn't disqualify you or cause you any problems though.
