acceptance at the pinch!

I love THE PINCH, where I published twice in the past, a micro in their print magazine (see cover of that issue below), and a micro in their online compendium. When I saw that they were proposing a neurodivergent special feature in an upcoming issue, I thought I should send something from THE LUNATICS' BALL. I ended up sending the profile that I just wrote in Ojai, "Dear Mary Todd Lincoln, " and it took them only a week to accept it. I hadn't sent it anywhere else. One of those rare essays which was accepted on first submission! The issue comes out next spring. Great magazine! The roster of famous writers they've published in the past is pretty breathtaking.
