ReplyDeleteDude, for all practical purposes, the Atlantic doesn't even publish fiction anymore. :-)
ReplyDeleteYeah, I know. And I think it sucks. But one of my profs recommended that I submit to them, and I'm willing to do so even if this is as close as I get to ever appearing in their pages.
ReplyDeleteDude, if you get published in the Atlantic, I will drive to IN, wife and baby in tow, to shake your hand.
ReplyDeleteAll the more reason for me to do so!
