Hi Travis, I enjoy reading your work on FN and at other places. Got any stories, flash or fiction to submit to jmww? I'm an editor there.

Hi Travis; new to fictionaut and love it. I'm editing an anthology, The Velvet Chamber (http://talesfromthevelvetchamber.blogspot.com) which asks writers to revision or subvert classic texts, myth or fairy tale. Featured in Jezebel.com. Still looking for a few good writers, Susan Tepper is submitting, and her piece, The Fall of Love will appear on the website on Wednesday. Thanks, all best, LA Slugocki
