I'm in Vine Leaves Literary Journal!


I was recently intruduced to a really cool online and print journal called Vine Leaves Literary Journal. It comes out quarterly and is co-edited by Jessica Bell and Dawn Ius. For those of you who don't know, the journal specializes in vignettes. Different from flash fiction, vignettes focus more on creating an atmosphere through description. But the journal also accepts submissions for artwork and photography. And guess what? Four of my photographs were accepted and appear in their current issue (#7). Squeeeeeee!




This is a first for me and I'm thrilled. Thank you Vine Leaves! 
(^_^) 


You can find the current issue of Vine Leaves Literary Journal HERE that features my other photographs, plus a great selection of vignettes written by a wide range of authors. And if you're interested in the submission process, you can check out their guidlines HERE.





Hope you all have a great weekend. 
I'm on my way home today from my trip and can't wait to catch up with all of you. I can't believe I've been without internet connection for almost a week!
