Aoife's kiss just sent me my first acceptance letter for a piece of short fiction!!!!!!!! They will be publishing a short story of mine, "Writing the Truth" in June of 2005.
I'm all smiles.
LOL....I just got a message saying I put too many smiley faces in here so I'd have to remove a few.

I just saw this over at the mill and dashed here to heap my congrats upon you!

Write on!
There ought to be a smiley face for "YAHOO!"
Posted by Kathleen Dalton Woodbury (Member # 59) on :
By the way "Write on!" is a writerly pun for an old idiom ("right on!") meaning all kinds of positive things.
I have posted this explanation because I fear that all too often "Write on!" is only taken to mean "keep writing!" and that was not my only intention here.
I also meant the following:
Way to go!
You go, Girl!
All RIGHT!
etc.
