Great question.
If you can't afford ...Hi Lisa,<br />Great question. <br />If you can't afford to buy copies of the magazines and can't find hard copies at the library, maybe the magazines publish old issues or excerpts on line.<br />DonnaDonna Volkenannthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04540727800410234483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-63724203874204455222010-09-17T08:30:42.422-05:002010-09-17T08:30:42.422-05:00Hi Sioux,

I checked out Sylvia's guidelines, looked at the examples (those are quite helpful) and will work on something to submit.<br /><br />Again, thank you.Sioux Roslawskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924021828536277618noreply@blogger.com
