Thanks. 
Nicely done on the HH story, Peter. And Bats too, for your drabbles a couple of pages back. I'm always amazed when people can write such succinct but satisfying stories. Doubt I'd be able to do it in a million years.

Congrats, Dani!
I got an acceptance from DSF last night for "The Sevent Habits of Highly Effective Monsters" fantasy humor flash. This will be my 11th story at DSF!

Congrats Dani!
Congrats to you too, Alex. I see the ongoing effort to make the site into Daily Shvartsman Fiction is continuing apace!

Congrats pdichellis and Dani! And also, again, Alex. I love the title Alex, so I look forward to seeing that one arrive in my email.
Today, I heard I've made my first resale. Kasma SF will publish 'The Kyne Extraction' as their September story. This was first published by Plasma Frequency Magazine, in April 2013.
I'm chuffed, especially since I enjoy a number of the authors Kasma SF has published previously.

Congrats, Fihr!
Another bit of major but self-created braggage. My first short story collection, "Explaining Cthulhu to Grandma and Other Stories" will be released in February 2015!
There is a Kickstarter campaign to help make it a better book, and I would greatly appreciate any kind of signal boost the Write1Sub1 tribe can help out with!

Yesterday my latest novel, A DANGEROUS FICTION, was reprinted in Penguin paperback. Seeing that logo on my book brought back memories of when I lived in Ein Gedi, a Dead Sea nature preserve. One of the most beautiful places on earth, and I loved it, but it had one huge disadvantage: the closest bookstore was 2 hours away in Be'ersheva. Once every month or so I'd hitch a ride to the city, head straight for the bookstore, and snatch up all the Penguin paperbacks I could find...because even if I didn't know the author, I trusted the imprint.
So it's a huge pleasure for me to see that imprint on my own mystery...which, btw, is set in the NYC publishing world.

Congrats! Who wouldn't be happy with a penguin (or puffin) on their spine!

Congrats, Barbara.
Aislinn, that was a lovely read, which gently touched many issues. Perfectly suited to the Futures section, too. Congratulations!

My magical realism and codebreaking story is up at The Dark: Tommy Flowers and the Glass Bells of Bletchley.
Congratulations, pdichellis and OJCade!
My kickstarter campaign has funded. In 93 hours! There are now 26 days to go to accomplish some stretch goals, which I have now posted. Very thankful to those who backed it.

I had no idea you had a kickstarter going on. I just backed the $25 SIGNED! pledge!
Woohoo!
Thank you very much! I'm thrilled to see that people are actually backing this. Can't wait to have my own book to waive around at conventions. (That's the purpose of physical books. Right? Right?)
There are a few live events I'll be doing soon as well as some more online promotion, so I'm very cautiously optimistic about hitting the $4000 mark and creating the audiobook!
