I DID IT!!

anthimeria: Astro City superheroine Flying Fox (Flying Fox)
I got my very first acceptance letter today!!  I don't know what to do with myself.

Well, except send the signed contract back and tell everyone I know that I'M GOING TO BE A PUBLISHED AUTHOR!

Deal is this: it's one of my short stories, called "Well Enough," and it's being published in a yearly fantasy anthology called Sword and Sorceress 25.

I've always been a little bit in love with Sword and Sorceress )

Now I'm going to be in this anthology, and maybe write a bio that some other girl, hungry for awesome women in spec-fic, will read and think, "Hey.  If she can do it, so can I!"

That's what I thought.  And now I have.

Thanks, MZB.


(Y'all, if I get this excited for my first short story sale, I don't know what I'm gonna do when my first novel gets published.)

(Also, expect to hear me squeaking some more in November, when the book actually comes out!)
