Revising SNSM

Edited SNSM up to the rewrite bit, as predicted. Now must do deep, meaningful, stylistic rewrite.

Which is kind of intimidating, because the rest of the story is sturdy right now, and the first draft of the rewrite is thin. *insert angst here*

Gone for next 3 days to Minneapolis for author education/professor educating. Me n Baba Yaga will see you on the flip side of that.

Submission to Podcast

Just sent off The Initiation Rites and Incantations of the Vampire Killers Junior Auxiliary to Pod Castle.

manzabar sent me information about these sites that podcast short stories some time ago, but Pseudopod was horror and Escape Pod was science fiction. Now that they're launching PodCastle, there was a venue for fantasy. They like humor too, so we'll see.

Here's the website in case any of you are interested.

ETA: A very quick rejection.

Places to Send Sister Night, Sister Moon

Since there were moments of brain fry today, I took to cleaning out my email box, paring it down to a fraction of the messages in it.

I have already mentioned manzabar's long forgotten email about podcasting, which gave me a venue to send out one story.

My other sweetheart/champion of the day is scieppan, who sent me several links to several artistic/speculative fiction sites. I've settled on sending Sister Night, Sister Moon to two venues simultaneously: Drollerie Press and Wheatland Press, both of which are well known and prestigious. Publication in either is a worthy endeavor.

So, as soon as that story is done, I have a couple of places to send to. Thanks, Jools.

Time for some plans, then.

All subject to change depending on contracts, paying gigs, etc.

Sure I'm gonna get rejected some. But isn't this fun? It's so nice to be doing this!
