A couple entries back, I mentioned my good friend Susan. She is still my good friend, but now she’s also my writing partner and my life partner.
We both like to write a lot and we both want to develop our writing careers so we have decided to encourage each other to submit at least one story or article every month.
For September, we both submitted a story to Ploughshares. For October, we both sent in a story to Writer’s Digest short story contest.
Wish us luck! :-)
