I just got word.

Out of the tens of thousands of stories submitted every year for the Ellora's Cavemen anthology setries, mine is one of the 24 chosen for the 2009 schedule!

Ellora's Cavemen is the flagship anthology. It's the one that goes out to every book store all over the country.

My piece is right now called "Brazen Cherry Tart." It'll be getting a new title. It's a steampunk adventure, in which Chastity Millwood is being shipped to the Io colony in disgrace with her aunt. Auntie plans to marry Chastity off quickly, but Chastity has other plans, mostly involving a handsome junior officer, Ulysses Carter.

This is huge. I'm half in shock that they TOOK it. Mudd says I should stop squeeing, because the dogs in the neighborhood are howling.

The D-Man Checks In: Got a wee personal stake in this one. Be real curious to see if I can pick out any of my handiwork. It really was a well-written piece. You should not be shocked at all it got picked up. I was shocked it didn't when 1st submitted.

Very, very well done, my dear!

Let the neighborhood dogs howl...
You've more than earned this one!

This was the first submission.

However, we subbed well ahead of the deadline, and they didn't start reading until Oct 1 (after the deadline). We're pleased to find out this early.
