But all the stories are picked by blind submission so when they picked your story, they wouldn't have known who they were picking. You weren't informed that your story would be included? That's incredible. Donna Andrews announced at Malice that they are already planning Volume 6. I'm already plotting. I may have to ask for your help since what I have in mind is historical--at least the 1970s!E. B.

Before that all my stories had been published by the groups of which I am a member so I was known to the staff. I picked up a copy of CC2 and read it from cover to cover. It is a good series to be part of. Good for you EB.KB Ingleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06089951663907060127noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-38221906631756022752012-04-30T12:43:15.492-04:002012-04-30T12:43:15.492-04:00Good to have met you as well, Gloria.

I spent a lot of time staring at our name badges that hung about chest level on everyone because I wanted to meet people who I knew I wouldn't recognize by face. I was also happy to meet Linda too! I hope no one thought I was a weirdo!E. B.

It's always a thrill when one's work is accepted. It brings back memories of when I got the news my short story was picked for "Fish Tales."<br /><br />Reading about how these writers came up with their ideas was interesting. Some of them told their story this past weekend on the short story panel at Malice.<br /><br />It was nice to finally meet you at Malice. It's too bad it was towards the end of our last day.Gloria Aldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581719606924364447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-13906811396926790622012-04-30T11:05:50.822-04:002012-04-30T11:05:50.822-04:00I don't know about you, Warren, but I find it ...I don't know about you, Warren, but I find it hard to write to topic. I'll have ideas for shorts and then when an organization or publication calls for a particular piece, my ideas seem to fly out the window. <br /><br />I had written my story about six months before without a clue as to where I was going to place it. Serendipity? In a way I'd like to think so, but then in another way, I hope not!<br /><br />I'm proud of the fact that my short was chosen from a blind submission.E. B.
