I may find a home for the Maier Zunder piece in a Bulletin for the local genealogical society. Could happen.
Maybe things are meant to be. Kismet. Serendipity. What are the chances that the academic journal would be looking for papers with the theme "Religion in Connecticut Politics" at the very time I submit my devotional exercises paper. Which has religion and politics and connecticut and history all together.
I didn't even know about that theme. They probably will never have it again. Wow, maybe there is something out there in the universe that is working in my favor right now.
A message to keep researching and to keep writing. I just knew last winter and spring that I was going to write those two papers. No question in my mind. I knew the devotional exercise story had legs, starred my man Maier and nobody had written about it. Really. I was so fortunate to have Interlibrary Loan to get all those microfilm reels of newspapers and to have the time to compile all of those newspaper articles.
Somehow, this is working in the way I thought things would happen when I was in college or when I was working for cash money. You know, that one thing would lead to another. Now, I am riding a bit of a wave. Now some might not thing it's much of a wave, but it's huge for me.
Keep going. In the words of the late david bailey...Keep on keeping on.
