Gratz!

Thank you! I am super excited.

I have had short stories published recently, but this is the first SFWA-qualifying sale in a long time.

[pameladean]

Yaaaay! That is always such a grand feeling.

[lydamorehouse]

It never gets old?

I mean, not going to lie, it's been long enough for me that this feels really special. As I said above, I can't remember the last time I sold to a SFWA-qualifying market.

[sabotabby]

Yay congrats!

[lydamorehouse]

Thank you!!

[naomikritzer]

THAT IS AWESOME.

[lydamorehouse]

Yes, I am really thrilled to be in the same anthology as you, my friend!

[umadoshi]

Congrats! ^_^

[lydamorehouse]

Thank you so much. I'm giddy... and probably will be all week.

You'd think this would inspire me to write more, but so far.... nope.

w00t!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I'm insanely pleased. It's been a while since I've 1) sold to strangers and 2) sold to a SFWA-qualifying market, so I feel... validated ? It's dumb. It shouldn't matter, but it always does.

Yessss

[lydamorehouse]

I wish I could answer in gifs. I think maybe I can, but to be honest, it would just be a lot of Kermit flailing. So, yaaaaay!!

Thank you.

Congratulations!

[lydamorehouse]

Thank you so much! It feels like a good omen??? I never want to say that about a new year--and anyway, it's nearly the end of February, so?
