Signs of Spring…

Rejoice, Dear Readers! Spring is on the way. It’s true! I spotted my first-of-the-year bumblebee. And speaking of bumbles, we have a new addition. The writer’s terrace here at MEF Central now features a bumblebee house. Let’s hope some fat buzzers take up occupancy.

March is but one week old, and yet we’re smokin’ busy. Cue the drum roll! Two BIG acceptances, more stories submitted, and more publishing announcements on the horizon. Stay tuned to the MEF blog for all the latest. What’s New In Marco’s World is here:
