Yellow Roses Accepted! and West Virginia Writers Conference Awards

Good news number 1: I received a letter from Mountain Girl Press today, notifying me that they are accepting my story, Yellow Roses, for their next anthology of short stories about strong Appalachian women.

Good news number 2: A third place win in the Appalachian category at the West Virginia Writers Conference annual writing contest for the same story, Yellow Roses. Honorable mention for the children's story, I Don't Want to Move!, honorable mention for the poem Gardening in a Time of War, and second place for the Writers Wall for a short version of Yellow Roses. (I think that story's a keeper.)
