[EL] [Lawcourt-l] Ike Picture RE: My attempt at political fiction/a real short story/ An American Coup

[Schultz, David A.]

Thanks Chip!  Palin was fun for the story but post-convention I plan to
revise the short story.  Do you or others have any ideas on a good place to
send the short story?  I think it is a fun piece and it deserves wider read
than the Huffington Post?

If anyone has a good idea on where to send it let me know.
