Congratulations, Lillie! I was already looking forward to reading the volume (even if they didn't like my two submissions -- *sigh*) but now I've got one more reason to pick it up when it's available.

Well done and enjoy your dancing sheep!

Yay! Thanks, Brenda.
Lovely bananas!

And I must say that I really enjoyed the new stories at Goldfish Grimm. They were very different from last months, but just as good.
Congratulations to you and the authors!

Congratulations, that's huge! Not SFWA-qualifying at the moment, but a VERY nice sale.

I missed their submission window (they were open for literally 3-4 days) but will definitely send them something as soon as they reopen.

I know it was a while back in this thread when these were mentioned, but:

Loldoc, I just read your robot story, and you had me laughing out loud. Loved the poetry.

Smallthing, I then read your Sea Glass story, which was very beautiful, and tragic.

A great way to start my morning.

And congrats to everyone else who is getting acceptances right now.
