"Intended" is also now available at AnthologyBuilder. :)
I also asked about their contract and whether or not I could create my own antho at LuLu.com of my published work. It's not mentioned in their contract, but I figured it's better to ask and make sure it's all cool before I go and do anything. The contract is non-exclusive, so no problem there.
Mind you, it's going to be awhile before I have enough stories that can't seem to find reprint homes before I create the antho, but it's nice to know the option is available. :)
Okay, VERY late start today...better get moving!

"In the Blood" has been accepted by AnthologyBuilder and is now available online. Nancy specific comments: "What a sweet story!"
Definitely a nice light in the day. :)
Checking the galley now...and I know I should get back to her on any technical issues; but...what I WANT to fix is the writing itself. Is that a normal reaction to the galley? lol

The one thing I did do that was writing related yesterday. I suspect I needed the down time, but still I would rather have gotten more done. I realize I do the work thing all week and the writing thing all weekend, but it's not like I never take it easy. Honest!
Anyway...
"A Gift of Writing"
starting count: 2923
ending count: 2912
gain/loss: -11
Actual (processed) word count: 2923
Total New Words (Day/Week): 0 / 0
Total for the Day: 2923
Total for the Week: 2923
"Gift" has been sent on to the DII Antho; we'll see if the other admins there like it enough. It's only supposed to take 3 months, but they have been slow. I gave them a nudge about it earlier this morning. (I only vote if there's a tie, and I can't vote on my own so a tie would be a rejection.)
Also of note, "Metawriting" will now be making an appearance in a new Lilley Press newsletter. She'll be starting with the older pieces that have already appeared in Worlds of Wonder.
Long list of things to get done today, including revising a nonfic article and trying to find it a home, slush reading, A.C., a new "training" manual for LP (probably not very long since it'll be mostly "how to"), crits, & et cetera.
No, I wouldn't have needed any down time, not at all! :P

Just received the acceptance this morning. The downside is that Inspired Pen has gone through some changes and is no longer paying. It really would have been nice to get $25 for the poem. *sighs*
Regardless, I've told them I'm fine with it. It's nice to know my poetry is publishable, but I never really expected to earn much, if anything, from it. *shrug* I just submit it because, well, really, what else am I going to do with it? I'm not really much of a poet.
So, finally, an acceptance this month! No idea when it will be published. I'll let you all know as soon as I do, and as soon as I have my machine in working order. Time to get back to it. :P

No publication date yet - I just received the acceptance along with the contract, but "Presence" has been accepted for publication in Dragons, Knights, and Angels.
"Presence" is my second paid sale.
I should also mention, since I'm on the topic of publication, that another short, "Intended," will be appearing in the December issue of Lyrica, a nice, little, for-the-love ezine edited by a fellow DII member. She's been begging for this story for some time now, and I finally gave in. lol

DII F&P accepted "One Son." DIIF&P is a "for the love" market exclussive to DII members, so no $. It'll be available for submission again in June. :)
