Congratulations on being the "lead-off batter," Patti! Alphabetical is better than age.
"Take a stroll down the boulevard of broken hips." Ha.
Most impressive group of writers.
This looks like a great line-up--good to see your name first, even if it's just because of the alphabet :-)
I am way out of my league.
First name up! Whoo hoo, and must mean you're NOT out of your league.
Reasoner and Lansdale are two of my faves on that list.
man, what a crew!
THERE IS NO STORY BY CRIDER??????? What the????
They were trying to have a whole new crew for this one-but he did edit it!
Patti - Thanks for sharing this! Tres cool! And it's very nice that you get to go first : ).
Congratulations! And aren't you in grand company!!!
Terrie
A bit too grand.
What a super line-up of talent. Many congrats Patti.
Kind regards.
It's a fantastic collection, and Patti's in it because it's a quality story. You're definitely not out of your league. :-)
