Cudahy writer Jill Giencke, who writes under the pen name of Kate Fellowes has a short story in this week’s (April 23) issue of Women’s World.  “The Housewarming” is a heartwarming little romance that appears on page 42. The magazine can be found in grocery store checkout aisles, so check it out!

This isn’t  the first story Jill has had published in Woman’s World, although her earlier story was a mini-mystery.

“If you haven’t already submitted something to this magazine, you really should!” Jill advises fellow short-form fiction writers.

Jill also writes in long form. This veteran writer’s fifth novel, Thunder in the Night” is coming out in June as both an e-book and in print-on-demand format.
