Hi Judy, This piece is supposed to be kind of tongue-in-cheek, with some exaggerated whining, so no need to feel sorry for me. LOL.

But I'm sorry if you felt offended by anything I did. When I was editing Indelible Ink I had a specific vision for what I wanted there. and I turned down many pieces that would have been perfectly fine in another publication.

I looked for creative nonfiction and if it didn't fit I chose not to use it. If I ever gave you the impression that I didn't like your piece, I apologize. I think you're a fine writer.

I am guilty of not reading a lot of stories on Medium, but at the same time I don't expect that all of my Medium friends will read mine. They didn't, but that's not where my frustration comes in. This piece is specifically about Twitter, not Medium.

Though I made this piece lighter, it is frustrating not to be able to get my advocacy messages out, but I'll keep trying.

Just as I hope you'll keep trying to get your stories out there, doing the best you can.

Thanks for commenting. I think!
