What's a good email for writers?
Is there such a thing as a best email for writers? What email do you use for your writing contacts - agents, publishers, editors, etc. and writing submissions? Is there an email that you think is most effective, reliable, and useful, ie, does it have return receipt and having your own signature capability? Which email do you think is best?

Well, it's not that big of a deal, but if your email is something like 'hawtchikz432@hotmail.com', you may want to make a new one with something like 'SBrown@hotmail.com'. That sounds a bit more legitimate.

It's not just this one. As i scroll thru the various fora/threads on this site, and observe the plethora of damnfool questions asked, I say to myself that it's no wonder the world is going to hell in a handbasket - if the level of intelligence displayed here is any indication of the world at large.

That's a loaded question. It really depends on whether at the point of decision-making my cursor is closer to the left-hand or right-hand end of the line.
