CARNIVAL OF THE STORYTELLERS
My post on using the blog to build a memory box for Baby, which I called Tell me a story about my past, was included in the 7th edition of the Carnival of Storytellers hosted by DigitalRichDaily.
Other posts in the edition include the story of a young boy who dies at the age of 3 and is able to keep an eye on his living family. The story was posted at 365Fiction Beyond by Elvis D.
Also included in the edition is the Tale of a 10-Year Old Sniper which provides a real-life account a boy soldier in 1968 by Don West . Strong language warning.

BOOK REVIEW PROJECT
I heard from one of the major publishers I sent a book review proposal to over the weekend. She didn’t say “No” so I still have a chance. Unfortunately, she didn’t say “Yes” either.
She forwarded the proposal has been forwarded to the marketing manager, who’ll make the final decision and let me know.
Wish me luck.
