Oh, can't forget the weather: Today in St. Peters, MO: Sunny, high in the mid-fifties. Yay!
Note: Thanks to everyone who e-mailed about my absence from Donna's Book Pub over the last several days. Last Wednesday I had surgery. The results were good, and I'm feeling better now. Check back next week for another contest to win a book, plus other market and submission opportunities. Have a great weekend!
Thanks for posting this, Donna, but when I went there it said the call for submissions had closed. ?? Hope the recovery continues to go well, and glad you're feeling better!
ReplyDeleteGreat to have you back and in good health. Missed you.
ReplyDeleteHi Tammy,
ReplyDeleteE-mail me at donna (at) saturdaywriters.org and I will send you the e-mail the publisher sent me with the guidelines. It was too long to post, but it has all the details.

Hi Mary,
ReplyDeleteThanks. It's good to be back.

Hey girl! Sorry to hear you needed surgery, but glad that you're doing well. I know something's up when you disappear from the blogomosphere!
ReplyDeleteHi Pat,
ReplyDeleteThanks, and I love the photos of Indie on your blog.

Donna - thanks for the post. Please let Tammy know that the original call for submissions is indeed closed - this is a secondary call, closing April 15. SBB is looking for a few additional pieces of short prose (up to 1000 words)

Hi Tricia,
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome.
Some time ago I heard an essay of yours about your grandma (War and Peas? maybe) and another about an estate sale, so I know you have some great material to work with and submit.
Donna

ReplyDeleteThanks Donna (and Karen)! Meant to tell you that Becky gave me the information!
