[stylist] Writers' Division First Call of 2015 - a SPECIAL GUEST!

[Robert Leslie Newman]

April

We will have to find that information and post it. Yeah, each publisher has
its unique submission criteria and an author has to know of it, and follow
it!!!

And so we will findout from Diane.

Thanks for the alert.

       This sounds really interesting!  Where can we go to read about it?  I
did  notice a phone number.  I don't have hearing ears, so phones don't help
me.   I checked the National Braille Press site, and didn't find out any
information about how they choose books for their programs.
