Well, the afternoon did not go as plan.  As soon as I signed off, the baby woke up.  Then my daughter took my laptop to play online games.  My son spilled red Gatorade on our white carpet and the laundry had to be done.  That said, I did get a small amount of research done.  I've decided to go down an established list of editor/publishers and submit to each one at a time.  I found my first publishing house that is accepting manuscripts (I'm going in alphabetical order, although I was thinking maybe I should start with the "z"s?).  Tomorrow I need to get ink, print, and mail off one of my stories.
