An anthology wants to pick up my essay from the homepage.....
Edited on Sat Jun-10-06 06:36 AM by Wetzelbill
For those interested. I, for the hell of it, submitted a slightly more cleaned up version of my essay for OpEdNews, after a post by DU writer bigtree turned me on to the site. So the editor there, Rob, chose to publish it. Well, I am a published writer, I have had a book out which I was a coauthor of, along with a few other essays for magazines and so on, and one of my writer friends read the essay when I sent the link to him. So he then passed it on to a friend of his who is editing an anthology. My friend and his friend are both prominent American Indian poets, btw. Well, anyway, I have been contacted about being part of the anthology, so I figure I will look into that and probably do it. Anyway, I just thought I would keep you all informed on it, since everybody responding to it, made me decide it was more than a blog entry and I should do something with it. :)
