BarbaraQuinn Registered: 12/14/06 Posts: 19	Good news! My story "Crab Lines" was chosen by novelist Jaimee Wriston Colbert to be included in the 2006 Best of the Net Anthology. "Crab Lines" will be reprinted along with five other stories and showcased for the next year on the Best of the Net website. It'll be up as of Jan. 7 at http://www.sundress.net/bestof/ And you can also always read it at The Rose & Thorn: http://www.theroseandthornezine.com/Winter05/Crablines.htm I'm thrilled. I love, love, love the net! _________________________ Publisher & Managing Editor www.theroseandthornezine.com Author of 36C and Slings and Arrows (DiskUs) http://www.theroseandthornezine.com/Fall06/ReadingRoom.html

It's fiction but much of it is based on my experiences. I did learn how to crab and prepare them as a kid, but it was my Mom who taught me (not my grandma as in the story). And unlike the story, my folks didn't divorce. Cool..you have a radio show. Loved your website! _________________________ Publisher & Managing Editor www.theroseandthornezine.com Author of 36C and Slings and Arrows (DiskUs) http://www.theroseandthornezine.com/Fall06/ReadingRoom.html

Anno, Yep..IMHO the net is the greatest thing to happen to writers! Your work can be viewed forever and can find fans around the world. And you get to know the most interesting people. Do you write Anno? _________________________ Publisher & Managing Editor www.theroseandthornezine.com Author of 36C and Slings and Arrows (DiskUs) http://www.theroseandthornezine.com/Fall06/ReadingRoom.html

Dotsie Founder Registered: 07/09/08 Posts: 23647 Loc: Maryland	I'm another one who loves the net. Absolutely love it and all the opportunities it presents. They are endless! Barbar, I was raised in Baltimore, Maryland and that's not how we cook crabs. We steam them and coat them with Old Bay seasoning. We don't tkae the backs off until they are cooked. _________________________ Founder Emeritus of Boomer Women Speak and the National Association of Baby Boomer Women. www.nabbw.com www.boomerwomenspeak.com
