Braggage

Congrats Defcon and Michael!

If I ever get three acceptances in a row, I'm going to have to be scraped off of the pavement with a snow shovel.

So I can brag in this thread as an editor as well as a writer, right?

I just officially announced that Unidentified Funny Objects will include a novelette by a scrappy young writer, goes by the name of Mike Resnick.

Perhaps you've heard of him.

So much good news here recently. Congrats Defcon, Michael and Aggie. And how fantastic, Alex. Mike Resnick!

Woohoo! Go Alex.

I'm the featured story of the day over at Every Day Fiction.

I hope that you enjoy the story.

WOW! That's awesome!

Congrats to both of you, Aggy and Lillie! And Brenda. That will be an awesome issue.

I sent my first novel to the publisher yesterday.

Congrats to Lillie, Shadow, and Darcie!

And, as Alex pointed out, to Brenda. Goldfish Grimm has consistently been getting a nice TOC together every month.

My mystery flash fiction "Present Company" has been accepted for publication by Every Day Fiction. Woot! This will be my first story to run at EDF.

Congratulations to everyopne! Seems like this thread had been really busy lately.

My own piece of bragging is that I've just reached 20 individual stories out on submission today. This is a goal I've been aiming for, and I'm so freaking pleased to have reached it. Onwards and upwards to 30 now.

That is FAN-tastic! Congratulations. I'm right around 30 at the moment, myself. I was up at 40 a while back -- not that I'm complaining about the reason for the decline. However, I'd like to see about continuing to get new work out regularly.

And this is also fantastic! I know what I'll be reading tonight.

J.W. and Alimay...Way to go!

Wow - travel out of wifi range for a few days and look what happens! Congrats, Alimay, Michael, Alex and especially to JW on that first sale -- all this success is very inspiring! Hope I didn't miss anyone in the latest batch of woo-hoos.

Thanks so much everyone!
