Johnene wrote a nice note thanking me for re-submitting, though it didn't work for her. She said they are experiencing mail issues. I really appreciated her note! She must be very kind. I still have a mystery that is four months out as of today.

She also told me that there have been new pubs added to their repertoire, so things are more prone to getting sent to the wrong places.Tamaranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-406318704822590967.post-76221360199301978162014-12-10T19:25:17.264-08:002014-12-10T19:25:17.264-08:00On a different note, Kate, has Woman's World j...On a different note, Kate, has Woman's World joined the ranks of magazines that respond only to accepted submissions?
