We went up to Estes Park this weekend to visit an out of state friend, and I snapped a couple shots, including the obligatory elk photo.
Now, straight to the links! I am not endorsing any of these places unless I specifically say I am. These are just links I happen across and pass along.

Lackington's is open for stories with the themes of Dreamings and Architecture. Speculative fiction. 1500-5000 words. $.01/word CAD. I didn't see a deadline, but these are for specific issues, so I'd go with sooner, rather than later.
Of Interest:
I saw this one on Alex's page and am passing it along. Authors United Against Child Slavery is a campaign to raise money for Operation Underground Railroad. Those who contribute $20 or more get various rewards, starting with a free book from a participating author.
Blogger Traci Kenworth posted a ton of links to helpful articles for authors, even splitting them by genre. There might be something for you. And, hey, I made the cut with one of my diversity posts! For some reason, it's not letting me leave a comment for her, though. :(
Any of these of interest? Taking any vacations this summer? Anything to share? Any publication news?
May you find your Muse.

That Elk photo is awesome!
I'll have to investigate the links further, but a few of them sound useful to my needs! The photos are awesome! Very pretty. :)
I'm not sure of my summer. Next month I'm going to a weekend long anime convention and I may go see the Alamo after that, but I'd really love to just go camping *sigh*
That elk is hanging out like he owns the place!
obligatory elk photo, huh? I love it :) We're headed up to Montreal this weekend, but I don't think it's going to be as beautiful as your pics!
Looks lovely. I miss visiting your lovely state this summer.
I ate elk once.
Wow! The images are really awesome to look! I wish to take such weekend trip
Hi, Shannon:
Love your beautiful pics! And thank you for the links.
Hi, Sharon, I'll have to check the comments buttons. Thanks for the shout-out!! Glad the links proved useful.
There was a whole herd just lazing around on the grass.
I'd love to go see the Alamo. We've never made it quite far enough south for that.
I'm pretty sure wherever he is, he owns it!
Ha! Every time I see an elk in Estes Park, I'm tempted to take a photo. I figure by now it's obligatory to post it. ;) I hope you had a great time in Montreal!
No visit this summer?
So did I. :D
Thanks!
It was lovely up there, even though it was overcast.
They did! It allowed me to make a comment, but said it needed approval. I later got an email saying there was an error or other issue (I'm afraid I don't remember the actual issue at this point.)
