The List of Writers

[Alphabet]

When I participated in an anthology to benefit 9/11 families, the pieces that weren't *quite right* for the book were supposed to be posted on the website. I don't think it ever actually was done, but it was a nice idea, because as Jenna mentioned many pieces weren't rejected due to quality but for "fit."

I don't think pieces that don't fit the theme should be posted on the website because people may go there to see what might be in the book, and then might not buy the book thinking that the pieces on the website were intended to reflect the theme of the anthology!

As we knew so well, but are seeing played out for real now, writing is just one tiny part of what makes a book, and an even smaller part of what makes a book sell. Jenna, I wonder whether anyone whose work didn't get put into the book, but whose efforts help to publicise it could have a mention of thanks on the website?

That would also be very nice.

Yes, definitely.

I too am honored to be a part of this anthology. Thank you Mac, Janet, and Jenna for accepting my piece, and for the wonderful comments. Janet, I especially thank you for making my piece shine a little brighter

I've been traveling a bit and trying to set up a new computer so I'm chiming in late here.

Count me among the "pleased and honoured" to be associated with such a fine and talented group. I'm really looking forward to reading everybody's contribution.

Charlie, you're welcome to one of my patented (albeit belated) ultra-macho, non-girly-man hugs - wherein we do not actually touch.

You can all touch me (except Frank, and except on Sunday).

I am touched, Frank. However, some might consider that a medical diagnosis.

Oh, just wanted to let you all know we Canadians in the anthology are hard at work refining our marketing plan....

I'm so proud to be part of such a wonderful and worthwhile project with so many talented authors. Thanks so much, Jenna, etc. for doing this and letting me a part of it. Most appreciated. You all rock!
