Howdy, gang.
First, many apologies for being radio silent. Some big Real World events popped up and I've not been on AW since. Things have settled, which means back to writing and back to AW.
And now....
Out of curiosity, what's the method to the madness of how the excerpts are posted/ordered?
I reckon it's random dart throwing. *g*
Either that or putting the names of the stories in a hat and drawing them out randomly.
Totally random. Even dart-throwing has SOME skill. Nope, I simply look at the spreadsheet, pick someone, and they're #1. Then scroll up or down (depending on my fancy) however far I feel (sometimes not at all) and pick #2.
I suspect Cobra is attending to RL things at the moment and when he's had a chance to recover and process, we'll talk.
Indeed. Back in action now.
I'm hoping this is the best place to put this. My story from 2017's Solstice Story Swop;
The Little Lighter Girl has just been published by Midnight Street Press.

Eyeblink has also got a story in this anthology and naturally I'm thrilled for both of us.
Holy carp!
CONGRATS!
Just submitted Knock Knock to the ArmadilloCon writers’ workshop. Now to worry about it until August...

That's fantastic news!!
As for the future of the Sisyphus, I'll pick Zanz and the Admin's brains, but we'll look to tighten some of the rules to not only decrease the stress on folks, to include bail outs, but streamline the deadlines as well as speed up (without killing) the Guessing Thread. And considering the volume of stories this past season, it may be time to formally
beg coerce ask for a Sisyphus Second in Command (aka: A SSiC).
Once again, thank you to everyone you participated in the 2018 Sisyphus and if you all have ideas for making it better, let us know. This is YOUR event, so we can tweak it to maximize the joy.
