More Good News!
I just received an email telling me that an essay I submitted was accepted for publication! This is the essay that I've been working on for, oh, about 3 1/2 years. It was part of my dissertation, and I edited and revised it. I sent it out last year. It was rejected. I revised it some more, and I sent it to my writing group. I revised it still more. I sent it out again. It was rejected. I made minor, minor changes, which primarily consisted of editing a few passages and moving some paragraphs. I then sent it out about 2 weeks after the second rejection. In the meantime I've been working on other things and trying not to think about it. This morning I got a lovely email saying, Yes, it has been accepted. I shouted so loud Archer thought I'd hurt myself and I scared Bear! I will likely shout again when I see it in print!
