  2. See the "about me" link in right hand column, and you'll find a link to my email. Or, you could just post a link to the job(s) here in the comments.

    Sending a link is preferable. I can work w/ text, but no more than 4,000 total characters (4k letters + spaces), sent in main body of email (not as an attachment).

    But sending the link is the best approach.
