[humanser] FW: [Nfb-lions] New member intro and penpal magazine

[Sandy]

Ericka,

I am also sorry about the Ziegler.  It was something I listened to via 
Newsline and found that Karen Kowder, was writing articles.  We were in 
school together.  She told me she sent an article, asked about being a 
regular contributor, and received $75 per article.  I wrote an article as 
Karen advised me to do, and didn't get in (in school I wrote a play which 
won a first place monetary prize, and other writing for the magazine the 
school published).  Anyway, I have stayed more away since my contribution 
attempt.  I wwrote of how my mom accepted my blindnes and her acceptance had 
to do with a blind woman she observed and the woman's independence.

There is a magazine a man named Bob Branco edits, though I don't know its 
name, and he also submits to the Zeigler.

Ericka, nice letter and I'll answer soon!


Sandy
