    As you might know, we try to keep up with member news and tweet the most interesting bits at http://twitter.com/fictionaut. If you have news of publications, readings, MacArthur Grants and so forth, drop me a line at jurgen@fictionaut.com and I'll do my best to spread the word. We're also particularly interested in success stories involving Fictionaut, so if work you first posted her gets picked up somewhere else, please make sure to let us know!

    Finally, Travis Kurowski (http://www.fictionaut.com/users/travis-kurowski) asks that you send him "any notice of publications, editings, designings, and whatnot in the lit mag world" for possible inclusion in his weekly Luna Digest (http://blog.fictionaut.com/category/luna-digest/) -- and of course if you're on Twitter, you should follow him at http://twitter.com/lunaparkreview.

    Thanks!

    Jurgen,

    A great idea! Especially in light of Susan Tepper's separate thread that Fictionaut got a great fave (how I do love that word now, a word I rarely used before being invited to join).

    I have a few success stories as a result of being active here, and as soon as I know publication date, I will post to here, and email you.

    Jürgen,

    My novel - for now still titled THE LEGEND OF JIMMY GOLLIHUE - is being released in July 2011 by PublishingWorks, an independent press in New Hampshire.

    I've got two other pieces coming out in a literary magazine - will give you publication dates when I have them.

    Royalties will go to The Creswick Light Horse Troop.

    City Paddock: "An eclectic collection of short stories tackling subjects as varied as psychological mind games, the effects of war on those left behind, the vagaries of heterosexual and lesbian love, self-abortion, and murder, told through characters as diverse as a retired Light Horseman, a lighthouse keeper’s wife, and an old Aboriginal man, and set in periods from the nineteenth century to the late 2020s."

    Here's something a little different, I think, about a writing opportunity I just received because of a story posted here at Fictionaut. The most recent story I posted, The Devil's Inkwell, is about a girl who follows Jim Jones to Jonestown in Guyana. Fielding McGehee who writes and does research for the Jonestown site at San Diego State University http://jonestown.sdsu.edu/
    read the story and contacted me, asking me to write a personal essay for the Jonestown Report about my interest in Jonestown, my experience writing this story and the article I'm working on. Such a wondrous and valuable place, Fictionaut!

    The cover artist is Rachel Lisi not Lis. I don't know why I typed Jukebook, but it caused me to look up "juke." Besides its main meaning as roadhouse (colloq.), it's slang for a few things, including "to no-show." The characters in "Dumb Luck" mention words it's similar to, i.e., con, bamboozle, gyp. Hmmm.

    I am so impressed with the number of successes here. I'm happy I finally broke down after being a member for months and figured out how to maneuver at Fictionaut. My book review, "Death,Survival, and Pity" about poet Brian Turner's new book Phantom Noise is currently featured at Connotation Press, and I have had two poems accepted for publication in a future issue of Used Furniture Review. Thank you all for making this a welcoming venue for me. This is a good place.

    Have already told Kathy how much I liked hers on her wall, Julie yours is hilarious, love this line: When you share a hip, there's not much privacy, but there's also little chance of falling over.

    Jane, very nice story, so vivid, the small details: broken crystal, the cottonwoods, lovely.
