Very, very, and I mean very rarely will a publication seek out writers for their book or magazine.
Most of the time, a writer must submit to a publication and hope their writing is accepted. As any writer knows, this is a trial in patience and waiting.
So when I received an email from Z Publishing House, I first thought it was spam or a scam…but, it was asking me to submit to one of its Anthologies and, as a writer, it’s good form to check it out.
Thank God I did. Z Publishing House features up-and-coming writers from the various states. That’s why they search out and email writers, because they are specifically looking for those who are not as well known.
So I’m thrilled to announce one of my short stories, Wizard’s Coffee, will appear in Z Publishing’s Colorado’s Emerging Writers: An Anthology of Fiction.
It’s up for pre-order right now and will be published this month. Eeeek!

Thank you for letting me share my excitement =) Every publication, big or small, equals a celebratory glass in this house. So cheers!
Until next time, blessings,
Jennifer
Congratulations! That’s so exciting! Looks like I’ll be adding another book to my reading list. Looking forward to it!
Yay =) I’m not sure who the other authors are in the book since it’s an anthology but it should be a fun sampling of CO writing!
Yay! So exciting!
Right! Have to celebrate any time a publication comes along =)
