What a beautifully written and sad story. It would be wrong of me to side with you against your husband. It would be wrong of me to offer excuses for him. Anything I could "say" would be wrong, except: My heart goes out to you. That said: You clapped recently for "You’ve Written Your Story; Now, Where Do You Publish It?" There is now a link to a Google form in that article, which you can use to request a free search for publications to submit to. These are publications that have published stories like the ones you write and have done so in the last 30 days. For a few weeks, I'll be doing the searches for everybody. So, complete that form so I'll know what you want to search for and where I should send results. (Note, nobody but me will see your email address, and I'll not be sending you email.)
