erika, that was FANTASTIC. Add me to the chorus of "submit it! submit it!"
That's my girl, large and in-charge. Okay, teensy-weensy and in charge.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.
I just read it again.
Really must publish. Wish I had a magazine.

I was thinking Mouth when I wrote it, Tep. But hey, people's response has been so enthusiastic, I'll get nuts and try to make a few dollars, while I'm at it Because Mouth is like crime, it doesn't pay. I would still be honored to be in it, though, as kind of a cred thing. But I've got a credit thing that it'd be nice to work on, too. But they are most definitely on this list.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
erika, it really, really needs to be out there, being read.
And I think some money in your bank account for it would be a damned good thing.

erika, that must be published.

If I'm gonna be a pro, I can't always give it away. And, if legend holds true, I suppose I can't kiss my editors. But, like the Munchkin in a singles bar, this time I expect to be rejected a few times. At least.

Who? moi??

You rite gud. Share it.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
I sent off a query, by snail mail, not email, last Saturday to a magazine. TODAY I got a letter rejecting it. Believe it or not, I'm not bothered by the rejection itself, because Rejection Happens. But the sheer speed of it is a little dismaying, somehow.

Susan, the speed sounds to me rather more as if they aren't taking stuff at the moment, period.
