Wow, That was an incredibly quick response. Unfortunately it was a negative answer. They already have their allocated quota of poetry works for the year, and it's only February. Whew, they must have a lot of submissions. Oh well, on to the next one, maybe this time with a collection of short stories.....

Try there. They apparently publish books that other publishers turn down. Apparently Dennis Hopper is going to be publishing a photography book through there this year.

Hey Susi ... Remember, every no is closer to a yes :] I am proud of you for going forward! Dee-Marie

Have to agree with Dee-Marie - Congratulations on taking that first step. We're all proud of you. Dick

Yipeeeeee!! I have received notification that one of my poems have been selected in an Anthology of Christian Verse to be published in South Africa. It was a competition I entered so it has a chance to win one of the prizes. Hugs to all who gave me strength to overcome my reluctance to submit.

Go get 'em, Girl! Prizes are nice, but to get recognized, ah-h: nirvana.

Congratulations ... and this is only the beginning, I imagine. Even one publication can open a lot of doors. You are a published writer now. Way to go, SusiQ.

A big AMEN to what PSCOTT said!! CONGRATS! T.P.
