Ah, my greetings are bursts of thoughts--not subject to anything but greetings.
This just happened to be the first time I heard from you in a while.
Hey Rich,
Nice to hear from you again too. I've been away from home, on and off since early April. My step-dad died in late March, and I had to help my Mom sell her house in Chicago and her condo in FL. I spent several months darting back and forth from IL, FL and Georgia. I'm home now, and ready to get back to my writing with a vengence
Love for you to post a flash story . . .
I'm thinking I might have to wave the white flag on this idea. Doesn't seem to be any interest. Don't know if it's just the summer doldrums or fear of sharing shorter pieces is such an open forum.
I soooooooo wish there was a way for AW forum memebers to post their poems and shorter stories in a more secure area, that wouldn't leave us so vunerable to having publishers consider our work published for having posted it for a crit here. But then again, maybe nobody is posting cause the idea sucks--just kidding
The flash market is very strong, and if my idea doesn't fly here, I'm not worried about finding a happy home for it somewhere else. Actually, I'm preparing to teach an on-line flash fiction course later this fall.
Thanks again for the greeting, and the chance to give an update on what I've been doing.
