Escape of the Day: Skirt!

Check out the “Around the Clock” work issue that Skirt! magazine has just put out. The free monthly circular is geared toward women and specializes in personal essays. I usually think its layout wastes a lot of paper (which the pope has just named a cardinal sin, for goodness sake!) so I’m glad to see increased content online.

I’m trying not to hold it against them that they rejected my essay for this issue. Is this a good thing? Has their rejection made me annoyed, or just more determined? Luckily, I inherited my dad’s hard-headedness. They will hear from me again ….
