Hi Tess, wonderful interview, as I commented there as well. FYI, I have often been told by other bloggers that they couldn’t reblog my posts for same reasons but you sure can. By having our own domain we don’t get the ‘reblog’ pluggin but all wordpress has a ‘press this’ add on in our dashboards. When I reblog somebody’s post, I hit ‘press this’ book marklet and it saves a draft to my drafts. Try googling it for better understanding, ‘Press This’. 🙂 Hope I was helpful.

Sigh. It is not m.y. book. These are both anthologies I’ve had the pleasure of my stories being accepted with many others’ work. I will ask, however, because I’m sure that question will be asked again. Russ Towne, who compiled these anthologies likely won’t have time till end of year to give this a good think but I will ask as I’ve also wondered. I’m tickled with your interest. ❤ ❤ ❤
