I was teh editor-in-chief of TREI Literary Magazine www.treimagazine.com. Now I'm starting a new magazine called Writers Together, named after a Myspace page I started, to promote authors. If you have a Myspace , add it at www.myspace.com.writerstogether. I would love to either have an author spotlight on you and your work, and/or an author interview.

Thanks again
Cindy
