First Submission of 2009

Well, I did it - I submitted a story to The First Line, a quarterly publication out of Plano TX. Check them out at http://www.thefirstline.com/. The premise is to use the given sentence as the first line of a short story (300 to 3,000 words). The first line of this story is: Herman Sligo was a bit actor who played Uncle Emil in three episodes of the popular television series The Five Sisters. For those of you who have read my story Theft By Character (and thank you if you have), the current submission runs in a similar vein If you want to know more, well...you'll just have to wait for publication, one way or other other! The deadline for submissions for the Spring 2009 issue of this quarterly is 1 Feb 09, and those who submit will be notified of their status two-three weeks after that date - according to the submission rules posted on their website.
