Thank you Joe
I hope so.  There are a few magazines geared at military families specifically but otherwise we don't have much of a voice.

Wifey , Congratulations!
That is sooooo cool!  I can see how they would want to add your perspective to their reading offerings.  And, as it isn't a perspective that I see portrayed a lot from family magazines, ezines and websites, I'm sure their readers will consider you fresh reading.

UGH Presley
My husband used to cause that with total strangers in the store when Chicken Soup came out with my story.  He would have total strangers asking me to sign the book if they bought it...to this day I refuse to go in the book aisle with him!

WONDERFUL NEWS!  Can I get your autograph?  I imagine if I get it from you in your pre-famous years that once you hit the big time that autograph will be worth a truck load!    Keep writing and submitting!  I'm very happy for you.

Bel -
"I will write for a living. I will write for a living. I will write for a living." If that's the mantra, then reality follows!

Being accepted and published is the success.
Rejection is a good enemy to beat. It's a good example to us all to just stick at it and keep trying.

William the good thing about reserve
is as long as they trade in old one for new they don't get charged.  Carl has sooooooooooo many left from his reg. Army days he will never pay for a uniform again.

Bel..What makes it worse, is soldiers still have to pay for them...
The annual uniform allowance migt by a pair of boots, trousers, or blouse, but not at the same time LOL
