Greetings Ladies,
Well, I'm really nervous-I sent the sample columns, article and pitch letter to the managing editor of the Dallas Morning News, then followed up with an email. He answered right away, thanking me for sending the column idea and informing me that he had forwarded it to the deputy managing editor of lifestyles. I've sent her a follow-up email, inquiring about a good time to call her to discuss it Please pray for me about this, if you will, I need all the help I can get. TIA

On another front, I just posted on my widow's blog and mentioned this forum. All of you have been so supportive and encouraging and I'm very appreciative.

copy, I got a copy of your blog in my email. I wrote this big response but it wasn't accepted since I' not a registered blogger.

Thanks so much for posting about us. I appreciate all the help I can get with spreading the word.

I think your idea is a great one. The fact that you heard so quickly is remarkable. Please let us know the outcome.
