Pill Hill Press is seeking anthology submissions.
I am not affiliated, just passing along information to writers.
I AM ALSO SEEKING SUBMISSIONS FOR Not Your Mother's Book...On Family. Come on folks, tell me your stories. I believe that you have something worthy of publication. Now, believe in yourself. I'll be glad to assist before you hit the submit button.
Last night at critique group we were awe-struck by one of the member's essays. It was the most beautifully written piece of prose, filled with imagery and senory detail and nostalgia. The topic was summer, and the words were lyrical, poetic, tear-inducing; we all agreed.
And still, this person didn't think her work was worthy.We are our own worst critic.
When you believe in yourself and your work, you present as self-assured. And we all know how unsure all writers are. I often tell myself I am a pretender, yet the publishing credits speak to my success. I am uncomfortable tooting my own horn. But you just have to do it. Toot-toot! Your turn.
I am co creator of this PG-13 rated anthology to be released March 2014. Submissions are open. CLICK ON IMAGE for details on how to submit your true, sassy, wacky family story. Tell on your sibling, write about a humorous or crazy incident, you know, the stories you reminisce about at your family gatherings. Not looking for sweet and sappy stories, but fun, true stories 1,000-2,000 words. Previously submitted stories are still under consideration. Be patient, it takes time to develop a book. There are many titles in development. Check out the list and submit to some of the other books.

Linda,
How fun, sometimes our hardest, toughest critic is the person who stares at us in the mirror!
You are right, but it is hard to toot own horn...so will. Got acceptance for literary journal Oklahoma Review. They took a piece of short fiction!
Hi Linda....You are the most persevering writer I know. Seriously. You are right that so many of us don't think our writing is good enough. Sad but true. Thanks for the thumbs up. Susan
Toot Toot, you're an inspiration!
So true, Linda!

So right, Linda. I'm beginning to feel that way about my children's stories. But I did get an article I wrote put in our newspaper yesterday and on the front page no less. So there, I tooted.
I'm with Lynn. You're very inspiring, and your encouragement has been priceless to me!
