Hello all, out there in Blogland.  I have been remiss in blogging the last two weeks as I endure all kinds of preparation appointments for Monday's first of two knee replacements.  From all I hear  from those who have had similar operations this will go well and I'll be "dancing the light fantastic" in no time. 

Meanwhile, I have surprising good news and my message out of this is: NEVER GIVE UP SUBMITTING.  In a long-fogotten submission of my short story, "Cellmates" to a Canadian Publisher, Skysong Press, I received this past week a contract for its publication in an up-coming anthology and the promise of pay of ONE CENT PER WORD.   Well, at least it is being paid for.  Since it had not sold elsewhere after many submissions, I am gratified.

KEEP ON WRITING AND SUBMITTING!

I'll be back with messages some time after Thanksgiving.  Willma Gore
