Several months ago (in either December or January) I recieved a note from Teen Voices, their standard reply that they have it on file and they'd try to get it published, but to be patient because publishing takes time, so I've been patiently waiting and checking each issue to see if my short story appears, but it hasn't. I was wondering if it would be sort of taboo to write a note to them, requesting an update on my short story, since if it is going to be published (or has been published, and I haven't been made aware of it) I would like to put that in my Query Letter I will be writing for an agent as publishing credit. Is this considered acceptable to do, or should I just continue to be patient about the whole thing?
