Slushie

Since KC has abandoned her post (I kid, I kid, KC!), Every Day Fiction is looking for a new slush reader. If you love to read and critique, and want learn a little bit about how the publishing biz works, you should consider volunteering. I understand it’s actually a highly valuable experience. I would, but I hesitate to commit to something like that – I’m not sure I would have the time. Maybe at the beginning of the year, when work is less busy.

Did I hear my name taken in vain?

I’ve always wanted to do something like that, actually. Sadly, I don’t think Summerlyn would appreciate it right now. Maybe in a year or so…

- “It’s just rain. What’s the big deal?” said the monkey, watching the clouds from the window. Her eyes narrowed. She reached for her broom. - 05/23/2011
