			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A new story, &#8220;Blessed Hand,&#8221; was recently accepted by <a href="http://www.drunkenboat.com/" target="_blank"><em>Drunken Boat</em></a><em>.</em> Look for it this spring.</p>
<p>The fabulous Donna Seaman of <a href="http://www.fifthwednesdayjournal.org/" target="_blank"><em>Fifth Wednesday Journal</em></a><em> </em>recently<em> </em>notified me that my story, &quot;Crud Face,&quot; has been accepted for the spring issue, their 10<sup>th</sup> anniversary issue. Woo-hoo!</p>
<p>Many thanks to Christine and my writing group for their help with &quot;Teensy&#8217;s Daughter.&#8221; The story appeared in the fall issue of <a href="http://www.storysouth.com/" target="_blank"><em>storySouth</em></a><em> </em>and wouldn&#8217;t be nearly as tight without such careful readers. You can also read the story <a href="http://www.storysouth.com/2011/09/teensys-daughter.html">here</a>. And for those of you who found Gardner interesting, he has spurred a novel-in-stories that I&#8217;m ferociously at work on; it takes place in Ingleside, a yet-unnamed Midwestern town with a river thrust through its center.</p>
