Blackberry Witch is too long for Strange Horizons. . . I'm not sure if it's the right tenor for Asimov's (and they take 3 months to respond, so I'd like to try quicker markets first). . . and who knows about Phobos?
What other mags are looking for speculative fiction?

Maybe I should send them 15 pages of --|--'s. I'm not trying to get anything published, so no cost to me (besides a little postage). Would that make you feel any better? Even though they'd only look at the first couple paragraphs of birds?

quote: the truth was that Steve asking her to get rid of Brujo would be like asking her to get rid of an arm. No. . . more like getting rid of her ovaries, because Brujo was that much a part of her.
I found that sentence awkward. Are ovaries more a part of someone then an arm? Maybe identity-wise, but it still read awkward to me.

It interests me, too, as I'd still like to read the entire text.
If it's possible, could you e-mail me a copy of the story at Essenceflames101@aol.com? I've loved every bit I've seen, but I somehow missed this thread back at the beginning and, thus, missed the time for yelling "Me too! I want one too!".

Scott, if you email it to me, I'll have time in the next couple of days to read it. And I'd really like to read it. I'd like to see how the story had changed since I gave it my last read through a few months ago.

I'd love to read this story as well. E-mail is junkaccount@sbcglobal.net. BTW, My very first attempt with fermentation of any sort was Blackberry Wine with berries picked in my back yard.

Just those that post requests. No sense cluttering people's inboxes with unsolicited email. . . unless you're offering to pay me?

Well, if it's not too late to get a copy, I'd LOVE to read the whole thing. How on earth does sweet little Nina end up kidnapping somebody? You've gone way past intrigued here, Scott.

I still say the editor wouldn't know good writing if it jumped up and bit him.

I think by the end of 'Blackberry Witch,' you will no longer be able to fit the words 'sweet' and 'Nina' in the same sentence.
