Double braggage day!
I did sell the reprint to the magazine I mentioned last week (thanks, everyone, for your commiseration and good advice), so I'll have a kids' story in the July issue of Jack & Jill, by far the highest circulation zine I've ever been in. And another pro-paying sale of a children's story, this one to a brand new market in China called Red Squirrel, which publishes in English.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but Red Squirrel Magazine just hired me long-term as a regular contributor!!!!! They'll use four to six of my stories per year, at a very respectable pay rate. Zowie!

My first published science fiction story was released this week in the anthology A Kepler's Dozen: Thirteen Stories About Distant Worlds That Really Exist. There's an awesome write up about the science behind the anthology at the National Optical Astronomy Observatory. You can buy a copy from Amazon or directly from the publisher Hadrosaur. I hope you check it out! Thanks!

My one-act, "A Brief Play", was accepted to Birkensnake 6: Neverending Tales.
9 month wait. Whoah. And a happy ending! ^_^
