Meeester Lea,
Thank you so much for accepting my beeezare tale of the golden age of daytime and primetime soap operas, "One Life Unlived." Looking forward to seeing this one in print and reading all the diverse stories. -- Gregory 'I Just Can't Cope Without My Soap' Norris
Well done TOCees!

Woo Hoo to everyone!!!!!
Great work to all the authors, and a special shout out to Gregory, an old writer friend who's inspired me to keep my chin up, always!!
Sheesh, you hit a hundred and seventy-two and suddenly you're OLD.
Thanks C-i-t-B, always great to see your sunny jester's face! And a big 'grats to my fellow LIMIN-ati.
CONGRATZ to all. I'm still ever so happy! It was a great excuse to buy a Sixer of Red Stripes.
I'm really proud to be associated with this group of writers and stories -- when the book is out, you'll see what I mean. Hilarious, chilling, haunting, exhilarating, devastating and astounding tales abound.
I wish I had focused on getting the story I wanted to submit to this one done, but it just never really clicked for me. Hopefully this book does well and a Liminality II will be on the horizon.
Congrats to all TOC'd and all who submitted. It sounds like there was a huge amount of subs for this one, and I love the concept. Maybe once I read some of these stories in print, it will inspire me to get something created of my own that will qualify.
There is only one sloggoth! You can only do so much you writing machine!
Wow, Grinder. I got cold chills. I felt a bit like the Highlander after that one...There can be only one...Sloggoth!
I guess I better avoid losing my head, heh.

I hope you do check it out and are inspired, Mr. D! I'm sure the possibility of a volume 2 depends on the success of this one. And my ability to forget the fun of 200 submissions.
In the meantime BETA CITY is still open for the next few days...

Just wanted to stop in and say hello to everyone--and thanks. Thrilled to be a part of Liminality.
Congratz Bear. It is thrilling.
Congratulations to all the authors!
Thanks Buttercup. I definitely agree. Those "accepts" can't happen often enough!
Working on contracts for this. Edits will go quickly after that, because the stories in this TOC pretty much all have me in awe.
For those who have not gotten the news elsewhere, this anthology has been cancelled by the publisher. If you have not received notice, please write to me at the submissions address for more information.
