Congratulations with Teaser

All---

Please stop over at the Literary Lab to congratulate those who have been selected for the anthology in the Notes from Underground contest and to show your support for those who were bold enough to enter a somewhat intimidating contest.

I was fortunate enough to be among those selected and I can't tell you how honored and excited I am. It's unbelievable. I've looked over the list, and it's an impressive list of emerging authors. It's amazing to be part of that group and to be able to contribute something to the end product.

What will I contribute?

You know the invisible hand of capitalism? Yeah, that's me. I mean, it must be. These hands move a lot of money in the course of the day and I don't think one person notices me.

.Nevets.

  1. Congrats Nevets! So happy to see you on that list, I'll look forward to reading what you contribute!

    (a quick aside forgive me I don't have the energy to go looking for your email addy again- sorry I won't be sending in an entry for the Nevetsize contest after all due to my health issues. I'd have loved to see what you did with it!)

    Again, WOO HOO! Congratulations!!!

  2. Bru,

    Thanks so much for taking the time to congratulate me! I'm sorry you didn't make it, but am sure that your submission was excellent.

    Definitely understand about the contest, and I want you to concentrate on getting well.

    The good news is this may not be the last contest I hold involving Nevetsizing...

  3. I can't wait to see what you write. This contest has been a lot of fun (for the three judges) so far!

  4. Thanks, Scott! It was fun (if nerve-wracking) to enter, as well. For what it's worth, there will be a tattoo in the piece.

  5. Tats! I approve. I have three, you know. I told my girlfriend about the bear and latin motto tat idea, and she said, "You're just joking, right? You're not going to do that, right?" And, you know, the more she resists the idea, the more I want to do it. So huh. We'll see. If I told her I wanted a tattoo of Paddington, she'd not complain. Womens.

  6. Semper Marmeladis?

    I think if I asked my wife about a bear tattoo with a Latin motto, her response would be, "Make it Japanese, and then run don't walk to tattoo parlor."

  15. Thanks, Summer, Aidan, and Tara! I appreciate the encouragement and support! I will do my best to deliver a quality product busting to the seams with grim psychological mayhem and philosophical chaos in a suspenseful literary candy shell.
