I've just had a short story accepted for publication from Bon Marche Magazine and am excited because, although I've had a few small articles and some poetry accepted in the past, this is the first short story I've sold. Just wanted to share my good news with you all.

Congratulations Sooz48 and well done! What a terrific feeling that must be.

ps. What does Bon Marche, mean? Obviously it's French for good something. It's just that there's a supermarket in Vanuatu called Au Bon Marche and I've often wondered...

Once again, good on you. :-D

Fantastic news! May it be the first of many sales!

Thanks IG. Bon Marche is a clothes store here in the UK and they also produce their own magazine. As far as I know it means Good Market. I used to work there once and the customers were always asking what it meant, so that's what I used to tell them. Whether I was right or not I'm not really sure!

Congratulations Sooz! I'm delighted for you.

(Thanks for the review... I assume it was you.)

Thanks everyone. Yes Howard, it was me. I enjoyed reading your chapters very much. Looks like you could stay in the top 5 and get a critique. I do hope so, you deserve to do well.
