Thanks, Matt!

Awesome, congrats Shelley!

I'm having a great newbie week on W1S1. I've subbed 3 stories (one new, two old that needed a re-boot) and got an acceptance yesterday for one I'd subbed a few weeks ago. Oh, and two rejections, but that at least signifies that I'm trying.

You guys are very inspiring!

Yay!!!!

Congratulations on the acceptance!

Lillie, I had a chuckle at your sig line "I got a 21 minute rejection. Beat that!" Very impressive. I've always thought my four-hour rejection from last year was something special, but clearly I have a lot to learn.

Yeah, that was quite funny. I sent it just after midnight (my time) and it must have hit the inbox at just the right time to be looked at straight away.

So then I immediately sent it to another fast market and it was back before 7 in the evening.

So, sent and rejected twice in the same day.
Poor little thing.

And as I've got bugger all else to brag about, I might as well brag about that.

Congrats! That's a nice way to start out.

I got an acceptance today from errant parent for a humor short I wrote last year. "Teach Kids to Stay Safe from Cannibals" will be appearing soon.

I like the title!

Great work, Shelley. I like the title, too.

A tiny braggage (which I've already mentioned and plugged into my sig).

Changling will be published at Cuento on July 16th.

Congrats Shelley! The title of your humor piece alone has be giggling.

And congrats, Aggy! I can't wait to read it. =)

Cool, Aggy! I can't wait to read it as well.

Yay for Shelley and Aggy!!!

Congratulations

Congrats Shelly, Lizardmaker, and Aggy! That's awesome to hear.

More flash-sized braggage for me. I've sold my flash pieces Jingle Bells and Clockwork Elves and The Captain's Chair to Pill Hill Press for their 2012 Daily Flashes anthology, both as reprints =) The first isn't a W1S1 piece though.

Congratulations!

I've read The Captain's Chair. I enjoyed it.

Thanks, Lillie!
