This came to my writing group, but it's open to all writers.  Granted, this is not a paying market, but the exposure can do wonders.  Good luck..! 
I am accepting poetry, articles, and very short stories for the July and August issue of PeachPublishing.  If you are not familiar with the publication, please visit www.violettereid. com and hit the PeachPublishing tab.  All submissions should be submitted directly to violareid@yahoo. com with PeachPublishing in the subject line by the 27th of this month.  All genres are accepted except for pornographic or highly offensive material.  And please edit your material before you send it. My schedule does not permit to do extensive corrections.  Also feel free to submit your website and email with your writing.
Thanks alot. Can't wait to read new talent!
THIS IS NOT A PAID MARKET!  YOU WILL ONLY GET RICH IN EXPOSURE!

Thank you for sharing, Ernie. Sooner or later I have to take the plunge and let someone reject my work, don't I?
Don't think negative. If you've got faith in what you've written, give it a shot. I don't know Violet personally, but from what I've seen she's level-headed. You've got nothing to lose but your time, and exposure if you're lucky enough to be accepted.

Thanks for the referral Ernie.Looks like she has a nice little site.I don't know if I would have anything to submit in time frame you mentioned,but it should be interesting to see what develops there.

I was 'very' impressed with her site. It is very attractive and this opportunity is very exciting for new writers.
How great of you to think of us and post this article to let us know about this great adventure!!! You amaze me with how you look after your group members!!!
You're not just group members, you're my friends. This is what friends do.
Barbra L. Jun 13, 2007, 10:27am EDT
We truly are your friends!!! And what a friend we have in YOU!!! :)

Thank you for this information Ernie, I am going to look at the site and see if I think anything I have would be good enough to submit. You are a friend indeed.
Ernie, much obliged.

Thanks Ernie. Just visited the site quickly - I'll have a longe look later. I really appreciate your pointing me at this.
Anita R. Jun 13, 2007, 12:38pm EDT
Ernie, you are terrific. I will definitely submit something... I look at it like this, you can't swim unless you jump in the pool! Thanks again. Anita R.
Lori F. Jun 13, 2007, 12:56pm EDT
Ernie you are a peach. Thanks.
Deb J. Jun 13, 2007, 1:22pm EDT
Thanks Ernie...I'll see if I can drum up the gumption!
Lori F. Jun 13, 2007, 1:43pm EDT
Is anyone having trouble getting on the website? Or is it just me?
TK Rosevear Jun 13, 2007, 1:51pm EDT
I am so thankful for a friend like you, Ernie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anita H. Jun 13, 2007, 2:22pm EDT
Thanks so much, Ernie--hey, my professors always recommended the traditional "little" and "literary" magazines that don't pay either, but they can be the best place to start! And I think I'm ready to jump back in, and maybe I won't jump right back out, but try to swim this time (LOL Anita) since I have such a great support group now! Give that man a medal! Ernie for president!
Ladies, I see that Violette joined the poetry play on words group. Pictures can be seen of her in the play on words group. Welcome this dear young lady, not that I'd ever doubt you would anyway. The reason I call you my friends is because I feel it in my heart. She new to Gather and if you could help her around a bit, I'm sure it would make her feel welcomed
Barbra L. Jun 13, 2007, 5:08pm EDT
Ernie: Thanks for letting us know she's here. HOW GREAT!!! Can't wait to see her work on PPOW.

Lori: Are you still having trouble getting in? Click on the dark pink name under the purple at the bottom of the article between her name and her myspace address! Let us know if you are still having trouble...
Cortney R. Jun 13, 2007, 5:10pm EDT
Thanks for letting us know about this. I wish I were a writer. Always wanted to be, but never have had the talent.
Thanks for this Ernie. I will go over and have a look.
Jay M. Jun 14, 2007, 7:42am EDT
Thanks Ernie... I have a short story called Hank about a talking horse on a cattle drive that I will submit. I've been wondering what to do with it... and now I know.

This afternoon I sent in my submission. (:) I have emailed you and sent you a copy of my submission copy. Thanks so much!!! This is so exciting!
Barbra L. Aug 25, 2007, 4:39pm EDT
Ernie:

I have emailed you about this exciting news, but I wanted to leave it here, too! My poem submission to PeachPublishing was accepted and has been published at www.VioletteReid. com since July_07.

Thank you so much for having let us known about this. I am very, very proud that she has published my article, and once again, I would like to thank you for being at the root of the exposure. The publication is at the address below (and it is also one that I had written for PPOW).
