Well, I did it. I entered two of my stories in the Heinlein Short Story Contest.
The stories I chose were "Cosmic Charlie and the Apprentice Witch" (which was posted here as "Cosmic Charlie's Kitten Tale") and "The Girl Who Touched the Stars." I made a few changes to the characters and the incidents to bring them in line with the Apprentice Witch series I am planning, but the stories remained essentially the same. One thing I did NOT edit was the TG content. After all, Heinlein had a bit of gender transformation in his work.
I don't know if the stories will even be considered, but I know that I would never have had a chance if I never entered.
Thanks to all of my fans and friends for your support, criticism, and encouragement. Most especially I thank Holly Logan, shalimar, and Maggie the Kitten. I could never have done it without you.
