PegLeg Publishing is a paying market from Oklahoma. They published my work several times and were extremely professional. But that's not how I remember them. Matt and Kristi, the publishers, once sent me a short note during the storm season here in 2009 and asked me if all is well. It was an unexpectedly kind gesture that doubled my love for the small press and its sense of community. I have always associated PegLeg Publishing with that heartfelt note. Today, I will ask you guys a favor. A very easy one and will not cost you anything. All you need is a Facebook account, a few clicks, and less than a minute of your time. PegLeg Publishing needs 250 votes to become eligible for a grant from Chase. Please vote for them.
These are the instructions.

Here's the complete list of the 50 stories that were selected. I've read some of these flash fictions multiple times. The range, the depth -- they're astounding! Michael Kimball, who authored Dear Everybody, one of the best books I have ever read, is there. Jen Knox is there.
