Fun Stuff

*** This is my 100th post. Please join in the giveaway which ends Friday at midnight and will be drawn on Saturday.***

On Monday, Pea at Pea's Corner participated in a fun meme and invited anyone who would like to join to do so. I'm a little slow this week, but here it is:

Go to Amazon and click on Advanced Search. Put in your name and see what comes up. I was quite surprised. This is what I found.

A few years ago I answered a Call for Submissions to Haunted Encounters Ghost Stories from Around the World. My story was chosen to appear in the book.

The two that followed this one were Chocolate for a Woman's Blessings and Chocolate for a Woman's Dreams. I had a story included in each of these. They were edited by Kay Allenbaugh and published by Simon & Schuster.

I have had many blessings in this world and having my stories included in these three books was a wonderful experience.
I am not tagging anyone for this meme, but if you decide to participate be sure to let me know so I can visit your blog and see the results. It was kind of fun.

  1. How nice that you have had something published...more than once. Any book with chocolate in the title has to be good. ;-)

  2. Ruth,

    The Chocolate books were something similar to Chicken Soup, except they were inspiring to women. Thank you for your kind comments. I have had my stories published in many anthologies and it's alway nice to be included.

    Blessings,
    Mary

  4. Pea,

    I had my first story published in an anthology in 1989. It was called Gift of Our Fathers: True Stories about Fathers and Grandfathers. It was edited by Dr. Thomas Verny of Toronto. After that, I went online and found a lot of markets for my writing. I've been published in several Guidepost anthologies.

    Thanks for your kind comments. I appreciate your friendship.

    Blessings,
    Mary
