Great!

Congratulations! One or more of the pieces you submitted to the WDC Anthology 2012 has been accepted for inclusion.

Going through the over 400 submissions and deciding which pieces should be included was a long, yet exciting process. Six judges
needed to read through all the material and make decisions on each piece and then it all needed to be correlated into the
long List. Given we were constrained by a projected page count, we decided to make the anthology a larger size to
accommodate the large number of accepted submissions. Initially, we were hoping to receive a minimum of a hundred entries.
Needless to say, we were thrilled by the large turnout even though we were buried under entries! Have to love it when a
plan not only comes together, but massively exceeds expectations.

We have begun the process of laying out the manuscript
and I can tell you it will be roughly 200 pages in an 8.5 x 11 inch format set up in landscape format.

The editors each picked their favorites to be selected as Editor’s Picks. From those, I selected two Publisher’s Picks.
Merit badges for all Editor’s Picks, and Trophies for Publisher’s Picks will be on their way after we send the book to press!
Please do not write and ask which piece or pieces are in or if one of your entries received an Editor’s Pick.
All that will do is delay our getting the anthology to press.

Time allowing, I will put a list in my (Fyndorian) port with the included pieces.
Won’t tell anyone about the Editor’s or Publisher’s Picks though. Surprises are nice!


We still anticipate going to press on the anthology on or about the 1st of November 2012.
Whether or not you order a copy, it in NO WAY effects your inclusion.
The Anthology is priced at $10.00 plus s/h. IF you desire to order multiple copies, please contact me so I can let you know
what your shipping cost will be. Books can be ordered at
http://wynwidynpress.com/buy-a-book_20.html
or if you are ordering several copies, I will send you my paypal info. I will have shipping info Monday.
Phone number is below should you have any additional questions.

Just as an additional thought while on the subject of buying copies of the anthology, do consider that your parents, grandparents, siblings,
children or grandchildren might like a copy of the book as well and the holidays are right around the corner. It would make a great
present or stocking present! Help Random Acts of Kindness
and take care of a gift all at the same time! Remember, each sale increases the amount of gps that will be sent to RAOK! If you’ve
ever gotten a free upgrade at WdC, remember how happy you were. Think of all the upgrades folks will get!!! What an excellent
way to foster growth of writers!!


Both as the owner of Wynwidyn Press and as Fyndorian, I am very excited about the anthology! Again, congratulations.
