Sometime ago, in an earlier post here, I’d written that a piece of mine had been accepted for Chicken Soup for the Indian Soul.
I missed out on contributing to “Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul”. But later, sometime earlier this year, I also sent two other pieces for “Chicken Soup for the Romantic Soul”. One [...]
