Article Search

My dream for Happenstance is that it will provide publishing opportunities for writers. I want fiction, non-fiction, opinions, cartoons, poems, well-researched historical articles, human interest stories, travel, and more. I don't want Happenstance to fit in a box; I want it to be interesting and exciting. Having said that I will not accept material of an offensive nature, and, yes, I get to decide what is offensive.

Currently I cannot pay for submitted content, but I do promise to promote writers in every way I know how.

I highly recommend Writer's Digest as a great resource for writers. It has a wealth of information on its website and access to outstanding webinars about writing and publishing. Check it out.

To submit an article e-mail it to fsharon@msn.com in word, rtf, or as text inside the e-mail document. Include a brief bio and a photo.

A follow up to the article about the Animal Welfare Coalition of Norhteastern New Mexico, there will be a spay/neuter/shot clinic Jan. 7-9. Check their website for details. The group is also looking for people to foster dogs or cats. Check the article in the January Happenstance for contact details.

It's Back! Happenstance returns


Happenstance, life happens, is back. It's a monthly now with the fourth edition posted on January 3, 2011. I will be adding to my blog every day and want to have your feedback about Happenstance, life Happens, along with input for article ideas and how to broaden readership.

The January issue is chock full of interesting articles. I'm actually creating three zines. One comes out in PDF, which is accessible at the Happenstance, life happens site, the website itself which is new this month, and the zine version, which is at http://issuu.com/vandermeerbooks/docs/january_happenstance.

The website has everything except the serialization of Tiger Lilly, my contemporary novel about a family in transition, and a couple of end-of-the-year articles about exercise and healthy eating, and managing your finance in the New Year. See pages pages 12 and 13.
