Dear Folks,
This is Mairead Byrne looking for help. Writing Women/Virago published 4
of my poems in their 1999 anthology Wild Cards. They sent me a cheque for
100 pounds sterling shortly afterwards. To cash it here would have cost
me about 35 dollars, so I sent it back asking for a dollar bank draft. I
know I know major mistake -- and it went seriously against character to
let it out of my hands. Since then (August 99), I've written several
letters to Debbie Taylor and Writing Women, and left about 5 messages on
Maggie Hannan's answering machine, but nothing but a horrible silence
emanates. Does anyone know if Writing Women still exists, and if so does
anyone have an email contact for anyone there who can help? My teeth are
locked like a terrier's or terrorist's or even theorist's into this one.
With thanks,
Mairead
