10:13 - NB: Hereditas was affected both my Hurricane Katrina and Hurricane Rita. We will resume publication as quickly as possible but at present our computers, our printing company, and shipping are all either inaccessible or only partially functioning.    10- 27 - We're making progress!  We're delighted to announce that we have an editor.  Semi-professional author  Colleen Drippe', who contributed "The Bale Fire" to our Easter, 2005 issue,  has joined our staff .  Her first children's book The Little Blue House and its sequel, Christmas at the Little Blue House, available at  Little Flowers Family Apostolate, detail the continuing story of a large traditional Catholic family in the modern world.  Her book, Godcountry,  published by Novelbooks, is " The most believable science fiction I've seen in a long time--science fiction that understands the human condition and human soul yet still fascinates with the marvels of the future." (Review by William Ferguson, publisher of the St. Linus Review, Tulsa, OK). Mrs. Drippe'  is now reading submissions for our Spring, 2006 issue (Volume II, Number I).  She encourages writers to familiarize themselves with her new writers' guidlines and meet the easily remembered submission deadline:  January 1. Meanwhile, we are awaiting delivery of a new printer so we can get the orphaned Summer issue to you; Alas, we have faced reality and decided not to attempt an Advent Issue for 2005.  We appreciate our readers' and writers' patience and loyalty. 11-27 - The print issue was mailed on November 23, the day before Thankgiving.  Due to the difficulty in getting it completed, proofreading was spotty and several errata went undetected.  However, we are preparing a second impression and will send the corrected copes to anyone requesting a replacement.  We particularly regret the omission of the conclusion to Benjamin Ludwig's short story "Rosary" and the re-Christening  of Pavel Chichikov, who is now, for the nonce, "Pavel Chichiko."
