AN EARLY CHRISTMAS PRESENT
Stick to it in spite of hell and other people. Patience and endurance.
--Katherine Anne Porter
Christmas came early for me in the form of an acceptance letter from Foliate Oak Literary Magazine.
Here's what they had to say:
Congratulations! We've chosen your work to be published. We enjoyed reading your submission and will be including it in our January issue of Foliate Oak Online. We will notify you when your work is published. Thanks again and we look forward to seeing more of your work in the future.
--Jessica Hall
This will be my first creative nonfiction piece.

A followup to your quote: l'enfer, c'est les autres -- Hell, it is the others (Hell is other people) -- Jean Paul Sartre, No Exit.

I liked your Katherine Ann Porter quote. As I kid, I did a report on her once. Then, pretty soon afterwords, we were eating out in Durham, NC, and bumped into her friends Eudora Welty and Clyde Edgerton. Ms. Welty was quite amused when I announced that I was doing a report on Katherine Porter.
hey I have that same book!!!! hahaha congrats man. I bet it feels really great when your stuff gets published. I have yet to find out... but I'm working on it ;o) haha CONGRATS JIM

Congratulations, JR. You must be floating on air.

Thank you everyone for your kind comments. A coworker told me that online journals don't count for publishing. All I can say is that I'm glad to be in the same magazine/website as David Barringer, Thom Didato, Joe Taylor, Molly Giles, and Tony Hoagland. Lastly, it does increase my chance of making their annual print anthology. Thanks again everyone.
Jim, Congratulations in regard to your recent success. Would love to read it once it gets published. --Bro, Ron
Congratulations, Jim! A wonderful Christmas gift! And your creative non-fiction, too! We want to read it, so, be sure to post the link, once it's published!
I echo all the others a couple of days late. You really do know how to write so that it captivates one's attention...I wish you much success.
