Little kid tries to get published.

Today, a kid in the tacoma area decided that his story was finished and sent it off to a group of editors interested in creating an anthology.

oh craps. he is pretty hopeful.

"I like writing. My high school teacher encouraged me to try to get something published, and i like stories about death, and hey, these guys want stories about death? i think i can help. i hope." stated the kid.

the child mentioned that is really hopeful about it, but is trying not to "get his hopes up" about the situation.

"several dudes and ladies from all over the world are submitting stories. it would be sweet if i got in, but i just have to hope that what i wrote stands out, from all those other stories about death."

the site for the book says final decisions about the stories will be made by october.
