How did you first get to know CafeLit?
I found CafeLit on Duotrope and decided to try my luck at pitching my stories.
What do you like about it?
I like CafeLit because it gives an honest read of the stories you send and doesn't make you wait months before you hear if it was accepted or rejected.
Tell us a little about the story you have in the volume
I have one story in the volume. It is entitled, "Our Day at the Ocean." It is a story about a little girl who spends the day at the ocean with her father, the only parent in her life.
Why did you pick that particular drink?
I picked the drink, Warm Milk, because it seemed to fit the story. When I think of drinking warm milk, it gives me a sense of peace and that's what I wanted to convey in the story. That the father and daughter were out to have a day of fun and be at peace.
What are you working on now?
I am working on pitching some short stories, editing a book of short stories,
looking for an agent, and if I fail, trying to pitch the stories as a book to a
publisher, and writing my fourth book.
Do you have any writing news?
I am marketing my first book. It is entitled, Unglorious War, Revised Edition, found on Amazon, B&N, Smashwords, and Apple. It's a romance that takes place during the Vietnam War between a wounded Special Forces Officer and a Navy Nurse. I found an independent publisher in England for my second book,entitled, The Professional 16, Meeting the Men of CI5 and he marketed it on the Internet. He did a small print run and it sold out so he's waiting to see if there is interest to do a second run.
