Hello, My name is Sally Ruth Anton and I am currently a History Graduate student at Western Illinois University. I've grown up in Hannibal, Missouri, so Mark Twain has become very familiar to me. My appreciation for him really developed after I started working as a seasonal employee at the Mark Twain Birthplace and State Historic Site. My first summer I worked as an intern, and was given the opportunity to work with archival documents, including some personal letters from Mark Twain's friends and family members. I was able to use information in the archives to design and make a temporary display. My time at the museum, learning about Mark Twain, has been very rewarding. I recently finished a research paper about Mark Twain, in which I am basically arguing that he maintained a strong sense of justice and mercy throughout his life, even in his years in the West. A few of my professors are working with me now on locating journals that may be interested in publishing it. I don't expect to be paid, but I would like the chance to get my name out in the field. I'm aware of the Mark Twain Journal, and the Mark Twain Annual, as well as the Mark Twain Circular. If anyone may be able to give me any advice about what other journals would be interested in a Mark Twain study, please let me know. Thank you and I look forward to hearing more from the forum. Sincerely, Sally Anton
