In my experience (and loads of it!) MW are pretty good at rejecting quickly if they don't want your story. So they may must have been considering it!<BR/><BR/>AnnieAmandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06919354420843737481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289499514036255288.post-41893871640387444112008-07-20T00:44:00.000-07:002008-07-20T00:44:00.000-07:00Oh goodness, Womag, not accepting any at all??

Down to me to write a better story then!<BR/><BR/>Karen, Spiral Skies - Nice to see you over here!<BR/>Will def send elsewhere after a little remedial work - maybe to the lovely Jill at The Weekly News.Honeysucklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15077195038391022191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-289499514036255288.post-33314136354063408812008-07-15T13:58:00.000-07:002008-07-15T13:58:00.000-07:00Definitely send it elsewhere.

They are certainly to be encouraged.<BR/><BR/>I suspect Maddie M may have a point about hoarding the festive stories before making a decision. How infuriating.

I sent a Christmas story to TAB in May of this year and I suspect the same thing will happen.<BR/><BR/>I wonder if they hang on to them to the very last moment to see if they get anything better in!<BR/><BR/>I hope you've sent that story off somewhere else this year.Jill Steepleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03415291022830619230noreply@blogger.com
