Those are due to Liz, GP. She had her stories included in the book. 🙂

Sorry, I clicked before finishing. I know pretty soon, you’ll be accepted in one as well – or do you think you’ll put your own stories into a collection of their own?

I might publish my favourites in a short story collection one day, GP. A few of my articles have been published in magazines over the years, and one short story. But it would be nice to see my name on a cover. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

I was going to do that this September, Liz. However, the sharp rise in the cost of living stopped me shelling out the money to get things edited and formatted.
Maybe one day…
Best wishes, Pete.

I understand, Pete. The steep rise in the cost of living has been putting the kibosh on a lot of things. I hope you’ll be able to see your way clear to publication at some point.

Hi, GP. How did you know that I’ve been thinking the same thing about Pete’s stories needing to be published in magazines, anthologies, and/or a collection?

Man, I have been badly burned by the last two accomplished Indie author “compilations” I’ve picked up. A buck apiece won’t kill me, but time is a diminishing gift and Indie author shares are often a circle jerk. So, having said my piece, I will await your HONEST review of the anthology. I like Liz’s stuff, but I liked some other’s as well until they stuck their foot in the well of short story “anthologies.” Best of luck to Liz, though. Like we said in the music business “All we co do is hope it doesn’t suck much.”

I have so many blogger’s books languishing unread on my Amazon Fire/ Kindle, it might be a very long time until I read and review this, Phil.
But it is cheaper than a crap coffee from Starbucks, so money well-spent, in my humble opinion.
Best wishes, Pete.

There’s an Aldous Huxley quote about that, that I’ll leave as this is a family publication!
