Dear Katy,

The optimal word is First right to publish ect. Not EXCLUSIVE rights
to publish. But thank you for your concerns.

Sorry Katy but everything Ive ever sumitted to publishers they do

not
ask any questions beside how much do I want for the rights to

publish.
The only problem is sometimes they fix to much and I have to refuse
thier money until they fix it the way I like it. If you have good
stories that will make them lots of money they will buy. Hemmingway

was
a bad speller as well, but he put his gut and soul into the stories

he
told and thats all that matters.

Sheeeeze Katy, I can read a contract and can understand the diffrence
of Exclusive rights and First rights to publish. Exclusive on a short
story is worth 10 times what right to publish is worth.
Man O man O man.

My wife made me get rid of all the old sailing magazines laying
around... the stone tablets they're carved on take up too much room...

I spent some time in Barbados at the Barbados Yacht Club..
and to my surprise many of the sailors actually sail
fewer occasions than I do here in Ottawa Canada where
my boat is on the hard for 7 months of the year.
The reason being the threat of hurricanes.
In the Barbados most of the sailboats are taken out of the water
from January to July.. to be protected from the hurricanes
threatening the area. A few boats remain at anchor.. but
in the event of an approaching hurricane they are
pulled ashore. I did see on eboat that tried to
stay at anchor in the face of an impending hurricane..
the anchor chain broke.. and the hull was smashed onto
the beautiful pink sand of the Aquatic Gap.
In my case I enjoy about 40 sails a year.. and am very
thankful for them.

I was absolutely amazed at the number of boats moored
in Marina del Rey.. more than 10,000.
But very few boats actubut very few boats actually venture beyond the breakwater.
On several occasions I would see a sailboat tacking inside
the harbour.. not aring to go out into the Pacific Ocean.

It's the same way all over the warmer climes...yet when you go to a marina
in the north, at least around here, in the summer the docks will be half
empty and the mooring fields will be filled with rowing dingies...those warm
climates stultify the brain, slow the bloodflow to the brain, and retard
ambition.

That would be the mental state commonly known as "island time."
