Losing Becky redux

I found out this evening that my story "Losing Becky," which first appeared in 2001 in Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul on Tough Stuff, has been reprinted in Chicken Soup for the Soul: Teens Talk Growing Up, which is one of their "101 Best Stories" collections.

I still get teen feedback on that story from time to time. When it first came out, I had an avalanche of emails from teenagers saying that the experience I'd written about (being dumped by your best friend) had just happened to them!
