I’m sorry I don’t have any fascinating or hilarious personal anecdotes to kick off today’s blog post, unless you want to hear about the dang cat stealing my chair every time I leave the office for a couple minutes. Somehow, even if I only leave the room for 30 seconds, he still has enough time to jump up on the chair, curl up, and fall sound asleep before I get back. He’s so annoying.
I suppose it’s better than him plotting how he’s going to murder me in my sleep, which is what I assume he is doing whenever he’s awake.
Besides that important news, the primary goal of today’s post is to ask everyone who writes, edits, prepares, reads, reviews, analyzes, or has even a remote interest in grant proposals to please take a couple minutes to complete our Grant Anatomy 101 survey. Mike LoPresti, moderator for our 10 a.m. Grant Anatomy 101: Dissecting A Grant Proposal session, put together this survey in order to gather YOUR questions about grant proposals for our supporter panel to gain their feedback, insights, preferences, and dislikes.
Please provide any questions you may have around the typical sections of a proposal, which you will find grouped into key categories in the survey. Feel free to respond to as many or few sections as you like. Answers are anonymous and open-ended, so you are encouraged to speak your mind and not be afraid to share openly.
We will keep the survey open for 1 week, so you have until the end of the day on September 12 to respond. Thanks in advance to all who respond!
