Today in St. Peters, MO: Mostly sunny, high 69. Bring on the sunshine!
Here's some good news from a writing friend and fellow member of Saturday Writers: A flash fiction story by Becky Povich has just been selected by Vestal Review as one of three winning entries for the month of October 2009. Becky's story can be read online and will be included in their next print edition. The reason for the name Dirty Dozen is that the story can only have 12 words, plus a one word title. For more about the Dirty Dozen visit http://vestalreview.net/dirtydozenOctober2009.html
Way to go, Becky!

ReplyDeleteHow great for Miss Becky! I just saw a copy of Vestral Review today...interesting. Will check out Dirty Dozen as soon as I can. Am loading for 4 hour drive to rebuild a son's kitchen while hearing a 20 year old neice will go to surgery on Friday! Whew, my mind is whirring...wish the body and mind could whir faster!
