They will be posted on the website Maturity Matters. I'd love to include you. Let me know. Tx. - Lynette Thanks, Beverly:

Awesome. As far as one of your articles being rejected, I do believe there may have been some concern about libel but if you mentioned no names and no one would be able to identify the place of business then it shouldn't have been an issue. I had a similar issue when I wrote my first book, Whatver! A Baby Boomer's Journey Into Middle Age. I said some pretty derogatory things about some of my former colleagues as far as how I was treated. I had my attorney look it over before it was published and he said go with it so I did. I didn't have any repercussions from my former employer but the book did become an Amazon Best Seller. First of all, congratulations on getting one of your articles picked up by Skirt! Awesome.
