I was just looking through my submission records, and I haven't sent anything out since May! Wow, I let those old rejections get me down for too long.
Today I submitted my essay "Lesson in Love" to the Glass Woman Prize. I read some past contest winners and they were remarkable. check it out:

On the writing side:
I finally finished a book review for the Earthly Delights blog:

I am in the process of revising individual essays for a manuscript tentatively entitled "Beautiful Damage: Pieces of a Life." It is most all memoir, and each piece can stand alone. I'm hoping to submit it to the Bakeless book prize. The deadline is in September, so I have time (if I budget well). http://www.middlebury.edu/academics/blwc/bakeless/
