Let me add...it's not too soon for y'all to start sendin' in your stuff
for the Winter issue. No, I won't be writin' you a check, but Skywatch
is a way to share your writing with your fellow amateurs, and, if
you've a yen to get into the astro writin' game, it's a good way to get
some exposure. But don't hesitate...issues are fillin' up way soon
lately. ;-)
