Letters to the Editors

Last month,
I had my second LTTE make in into the February 2009 issue of VOGUE Magazine. It was a nothing comment about the November, 2008 issue of VOGUE prematurely predicting the outcome of the November Presidential election. The November issue hit the new stands on October 18th.
Last week, I received a nice letter from the Editor of Town & Country Magazine, saying I had sent in an "amazing" story. Don't know if they will publish it or not.
I have also written a LTTE to Marie Claire Magazine. Have not heard anything yet, but it has only been 2 weeks.
The point is, keep on trying and never give up. Never, never, never. It's not easy, but eventually any task will be worth a steady effort.

A poem from my book Forget-Me-Not, Forget-Me-Never:

Never be flat,
Never be sharp,
And always be natural.
