Short stories are filling up the mailbox!

Keep those cards and letters coming.  I think we are going to have enough stories to have a real contest.  I now have 8 submissions, would like to have 30, 2 weeks to go.

I am not always up with current movies and popular fiction, but after reading this article I'm sure drones will be playing a major role in stories soon, and it won't be sci-fi.  This article from The Economist tells me the world is changing.  Again. Fast.

Member Jack Swanzy is reading "Writing Alone and with Others" by Pat Schneider.  "It is making me think about how to go deeper in my own writing."

Short Story Contest - max 1200 words, previously unpublished, suitable for publication in a community newspaper, some connection (however fleeting) with the Texas Hill Country.  Send 3 copies to PO Box 2024, Fredericksburg, TX 78624 with a cover sheet with your contact info and a crisp $20 bill.  Judging will be by published writers with a 'double blind' setup.  Proceeds will go to our 2016 Agent/Editor Conference.
