MAGAZINE STORIES BY AUTHOR


I found a listing of stories that Ms. Gilman had published in magazines over the years.  I am looking
for copies to give a brief synopsis:

“The Magic Wish” in Jack and Jill magazine, June 1958.
(I found this magazine but the story was not there.  I will keep on looking)
--------------------------------------------

“Step into our Parlor”, in Redbook magazine, August 1961.
Sent on a mission to determine the value of property left to his father, a young man finds the supposedly empty
house occupied by 4 people.  Now what is he going to tell his father?  (This is a short-story version of Thale's
Folly)
----------------------------------------------

“Sorrow Rides a Fast Horse”, in Ladies Home Journal, September 1962.
A young widow decides to take her two boys on a trip around the world after receiving a life insurance check.  
She must discover a reason to go on living after losing her life partner.
-------------------------------------------

“Escape” in Good Housekeeping, June 1964.
What do you do when a quiet young man follows you from the train station?  A young woman on vacation
finds herself alone with a man stalker her in a small country cottage.
--------------------------------------------

“A New Way of Living”, McCalls, May 1978, pgs 193-199.
This story is about when Dorothy Gilman moved to New England area and found a kind of peace and
independence after her kids are grown
.

According to the copy write office this is a abridged version of “A New Kind of Country”.
This is the last story published by Mrs. Gilman.  I have tried to get
a copy of the magazine but I'm afraid that the publisher states that
they no longer have any copies available.  

So if there is anyone out there that has a copy just email me and we
can swap one of the stories that I have for this one I haven't read
yet!
