joshwritingA few years ago, on a mailing list to which I no longer belong and which shall not be named, an effort was made to gather material for a book. I wrote a chapter for said book, as did my mother.
Our chapters (which formed one whole) were accepted, but the suggestion was made that I make my submission under a pseudonym, for self-protection, as it was rather candid about my work/school difficulties.
I declined, claiming that nothing in there was something I felt the need to hide. A couple weeks after that, I was told that unfortunately, they would not be able to take our chapters.
Nearly 7 years after that initial inquiry, the book has finally come out.
