Issue 10: Spring 2021
by Charles Templeton
Flowers are blooming, trees are leafing, and writers are starting to eMerge this Spring. Come and join us at the Writers’ Colony at Dairy Hollow anytime, because anytime at the Colony is the Write Time. In this edition of eMerge, you will find yourself enthralled in Morris McCorvey’s short story, Rosebuds. I would suggest listening to Ella Fitzgerald’s Summertime or Miles Davis So What while you read. We have poetry by Bill McCloud and Wendy Carlisle that will make you pause and reflect on your personal beliefs about life. They offer you the gift of meditation along with all of this issue’s poets. Enjoy the Zen.
Our submission guidelines have been updated and we will begin taking submissions on August 1, 2021. We have a new submission form for eMerge. Hopefully, this will make submissions easier for you to submit and easier for us to process. All submissions this year will be analyzed and appraised for publication in 2022.
Have you listened to one of the Podcasts lately? Please, give it a listen. You will find the interviews conducted with different writers to be entertaining and informative. The podcasts are called Write Now at the Writers’ Colony.
In an effort to promote and assist our writers with marketing their work, we have formed a WCDH group on Goodreads. You can request to join by going to our WCDH Goodreads Group. We encourage members of our group to write positive reviews, provide ratings for our members, and share with your Goodreads friends.
We continue to develop some innovative planning for the future that will serve our authors and be beneficial to the writing community. So, stay tuned boys and girls ... major developments coming your way! Thank you again for championing the Writers’ Colony and for providing us with you financial and emotional support.
Until Next Time,
I Remain,
