It's tricky, isn't it? Esp. in this difficult market.
It did, as did your comment on the Julia Glass post. I so agree with you about just keeping at it, which is why I started the blog. I had a very long and rocky start, and am so glad I had wonderful writing pals to help me through it all. :-)

Thanks, it was lovely - and very productive! And thanks for talking up Poets & Writers on the thread. It's such a great magazine.
