There are five books listed right now. Two of them have been there for quite some time: Parenthood and New Friends. The three newer ones are: Hooked on Hockey, Independent Woman, and The Power of Positive. Ooohhh, I think I can write something for 2 out of 3! (NOT the hockey one, though!)
Open to Interpretation is looking for stories and photographs. It's a very interesting and unique site. Be sure to READ all the directions CAREFULLY. I plan on submitting a thing or two.
Literal Latte': Another cool site I recently found. They have poetry and pose contests going on.
Nail Polish Stories: I received a nice rejection already for my 25 word story! So, I'll share it here with you. I really hope many of you will give it a try. Have fun and Good Luck!

Just popping by as I take my break from blogging to see how you are:))
ReplyDeleteI sent 5 stories to Chicken Soup for the Soul this past year, and I never heard from them about any of them. I guess they weren't interested, which was quite discouraging.
ReplyDeleteOh, well, perhaps being a writer isn't the avenue for me.
Hope you're doing well.
Love,
Patti
Thanks, Becky! I have checked out the nail stories...I am thinking!
ReplyDeleteHi Becky - thanks for the info! Not sure if I'll get to any of it, but it's always nice to know.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips!
ReplyDeleteLove the Thomas Berger quote. I'm going to add that to my quote collection.
ReplyDeleteI love your nail polish story! I can't believe they rejected it. Fools!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tips Becky.
ReplyDeleteI tried reading your story but my computer wouldn't open it. I'll try again.
Have a great day!
Oh, Becky. I feel silly. The story is right there.
ReplyDeleteWow, it's hard to write something with only 25 words. You did a great job.
You are so nice to share. I'm thinking about the Erma Bombeck one right now. I haven't had luck with Chicken Soup, but I haven't tried them in a long time either. xoxo
ReplyDeleteThanks for the links! :)
ReplyDeleteHey Becky! Thanks for the heads up! Hope you're doing well :)
