Nichole L. Reber commented on the blog post '[1st Books] Heather Barbieri: Not According to Plan'
"From this I think the takeaway is to just let go. I'm happy for you that you learned storytelling was what mattered to you. That very same realization has helped me to write better (and more) recently. Cheers to you! @NicholeLReber"

"Actually, yes, I love that idea. Sounds like a triple win. Sounds like everything you've thought to add is exactly what I'd suggest. When would you like to post it? You're welcome to do it this month, if you'd like. Cheers "

New Facilitator for the Submission Mission chats

Posted on March 29, 2012 at 1:30pm 0 Comments

After participating for six months, April marks the first month I’m officially taking over the reigns as facilitator for the monthly Submission Mission chats.

A lot has happened since discovering the chats: my first piece as a literary writer was accepted. The ninth cloud is mine to ride as I await the actual publication of “Burqa to the Loo”, a memoir about the liberation found in wearing hijab…

Thanks Nichole!  I really do appreciate it.  The book is forthcoming, and should be out within the next month.  I will let you know when I have it and start reviewing it.  Yay!

Hey Nichole--I meant to ask you something today.  Any chance that if I reviewed a friend's chapbook we could post it on your blog?  I thought about spinning it so there's a short review (500 words or less) of the book, and a link for where to buy it, and then then Lucy's (the author's) top 5 submission/publishing tips.  She's an accomplished and up and coming young poet.  I know this is a major favor, but I don't have a blog right now, and I'd love to post this somewhere where there's an audience.  If you don't want to, no biggie.  I will ask around other places as well.  Let me know!  Thanks for everything, again.

Hi, Nichole. Would love to share on SubMiss chat. When is it?

At 12:07pm on April 16, 2012, Marilyn Bousquin said…

Nichole, thank you so much for your generous welcome. I am delighted to be here. My most recent blog That Damn Rope: What Women Writers Can Learn from Women Cops contains my thoughts on submission, rejection, and resubmission. I'm looking forward to a renewed submission mission here! Best, Marilyn

Hey!  How are you?

At 6:03pm on February 26, 2012, Rebecca Lane Beittel said…

Awesome.  Can't wait for one of those monthly chats.  I'll stay tuned!

At 1:48am on February 20, 2012, Jayne Ark said…

Wow, thanks! That website is great, and looks like it will be the perfect way to track down a home for a piece with a rather specific topic.

Too cool.  I'm glad you are enjoying the African stuff!  We had an African fiction writer, Helon Habila, on the faculty at Mason (where I did my MFA).  Great work.  I am really sorry about FWJ and the general frustrations.  I know FWJ has weird deadlines that are different based on genre.  Your time will come back around...I know the nonfiction team, and they are pretty cool.  Also, I think there's less competition in that area than on the poetry side, where we are ranked one of the "top 25 most challenging markets" on Duotrope.  This tells me our poetry readers (including ME) are extremely picky...uh oh.  Anyways, I will keep looking for possible homes for your work!  Did you look at Silk Road Review?  You might have even recommended them to me (?).  

In regards to the Submission Mission chat on March 1st, I wanted to let you know that I can't host or even participate.  It will be the first one I've missed!  But, the chat falls on the first day of AWP.  The conference begins on the 1st and ends on the 3rd (basically).  So, I haven't "enjoyed" it yet, but I will tell you how it was once I get back!  Also, I should get my book in the mail Tuesday.  So exciting.
