I still haven't been able to break into any other markets. I keep trying, but no luck as of yet. I am also waiting to hear about my membership status to the Science Fiction Writers of America. I hope to hear back from them within two weeks. We'll see what happens.
Not too much to talk about. Oh, I am working on the next episode of The Magic Sock. I've received a good amount of feedback and hopefully I'll do the recording late this week.
Hope you're all doing well. Peace.
Get Out and Vote
I make no apologies for my political leanings: I'm frustrated with President Bush and general Republican strategy and I want change. I'm looking for change because I don't believe that the country has been well governed. I don't believe in pandering to the religious right. And I don't believe that our country has been made "safer" since Bush came into office. With the 2008 election, still far off in the distance, I'm urging people to get out and vote--Democrat. I've spoken to several Republican friends at work and they've agreed that President Bush is not following the course they had anticipated. I admire any Republican who is able to admit that they were wrong for voting for Bush. I've heard grumblings of several who are seriously considering voting Democrat in the upcoming Nov. 7th election. I hope they do vote for Democratic candidates.
One of the biggest concerns I have, which is not being addressed by Republican leadership, is the war in Iraq. The "war on terror" has become a "war on drugs." We're fighting shadows that we cannot possibly win against. I wish to see American troops withdrawn from Iraq. I want to see a realistic timetable for when American troops will come home and international peacekeeping troops might remain longer. I want to see the monthly counts (98 soldiers have died just this month) stop. And most of all, I want to see America put right instead of our being led, like sheep, believing we're fighting an enemy that were directly responsible for acts of terrorism against us. Drop the lies and smoke and mirrors. Let's chance the course and make our country stronger by electing Democratic leadership. Thanks.
