I received notification today from Toucan Magazine in Chicago that they have accepted both the poem "Sex With Strangers" and the story "The Love Tap". They say this is a first for them to publish two works by one author at the same time. Yay!
This will be my first time in print after many years and I am so grateful to JLD for the constant encouragement.
Many thanks to Liz and Laura, Toucan Editrices.
Congratulations! This is huge!!!!!
That's great, MaryAnne--congratulations!
I told you you were good. I guess this means ... I'm right!
Yay!

Thanks to all of you for your kindness and consistent reading of my poems and stories. And a huge thanks for your most generous notes about my upcoming publication. I couldn't have done it without you! Really. . .
Congratulations, MaryAnne!
Big congrats, MaryAnne! Way to go!
Chris and Mark, thanks to you both. Sunday I was over the moon, Monday, kind of blasé about the whole thing and today I'm terrified by the tought that I will never be published again. . .
Ps Yep, the world's greatest typist. tought = thought. . . .
Congratulations MaryAnne! This is just the beginning of many, I'm sure. Your work is wonderful and should be out there.
Fabulosa, MaryAnne! I was surprised to see your announcement -- you write so fluidly I assumed you got pubbed all the time! A hearty congrats, and please give us the links to read/buy when your words ink the page. Peace...
Linda,
I just got an email yesterday saying they are going to hold them for the Winter - December 1st - so they will both be in the same issue with some kind of tribute for being first author to accomplish same. Will definitely give links. . .Thank you for consistently reading and commenting. You all helped me do this. Mar
I just got an email from Toucan on Saturday saying they are going to hold the poem and story for the Winter Issue - December 1st - so they will both be in the same issue with some kind of tribute for being first author to accomplish same. Seems so far away, but I am trying to be patient. Will definitely give links. . .Thanks to the fictionaut family for consistently reading and commenting. You all helped me do this. Mar
