Some how this looks to folks as if they have been accepted into my book, even when they did not submit!!!! Or even if they did not yet get accepted. I am thankful that someone immediately pointed this out. I will be sending each author an individual e-mail……today if they were accepted now, and later if we are waiting. So sorry for any inconvenience or misunderstanding.
A timeline, a publication date, and an e-mail I get to send
Dear Author:
Mother’s Day seems a fitting time to discuss this 2-year gestation. I’m beginning to feel like an elephant sorely in need of a massive Pitocin drip.
Congratulations, and thank you. Your essay has made the first round for definite inclusion in DUMPED: Women Unfriending Women, and unless there is a natural or unnatural disaster, the publication date is March 3, 2015.
This is round one, there will be more essays included as I tally the word count contracted with the publisher
