October/November Subs & Sales
After a five month wait, I just received the delightful news that my sci-fi flash piece, Aberrant Parent, snagged a spot in the upcoming anthology, Futuristic Motherhood: Alternative Visons of Mothering. The anthology is set for release February 2008 and is the brainchild of writer-publisher, Trula Breckenridge, of MSP Media. This marks another pro sale for me so WAHOO! I'm looking forward to reading the diverse stories the collection will surely contain.
In October, I had two micro-fiction stories accepted for publication. My mini sci-fi tale, Four Crows will be appearing online in Apollo's Lyre this month. Through friend I learned about a neat little online site called, 365 Tales, so I took a look around, read a few stories. I submitted a mico ghost story, The Haunting of Franklin Pristley, and they liked it enough to publish it.
I slipped up in my October submissions goal of 4 stories out. I only sent out 2 subs ~ which is still in line with my New Year's Resolutions. But the good news is, I was busy working on my fantasy novel ~ so I cut myself some slack on the story deadlines and considered it time well spent doing what I love most . . . writing . . . creating.
Hope you receive equally good news this month!
