I may have sold another short story! Yay!
Way back in April I submitted to a science fiction publication (a niche one, not one of the Big publications). Yesterday I heard back… the editor really likes my story, and had a short list of editing changes they wanted me to make.
I finished them up that day and sent it right back… hopefully this time it won’t take as long to get a response. But this is great! I’m super excited to have my work published, AND that they liked my story! I’m hoping to fire off a few more before the end of the year, now that I know their turnaround is on the longer side.
I might submit two… or even three stories at the same time. We’ll see!
Either way, this is great news. The pay is pretty good (for a short story… I don’t think anyone can make a living off of just short story submissions these days… I mean, it took 7 months for them to potentially accept this one!), and just in time that I can turn this story into a bunch of presents for the holidays. Hopefully! I’ll definitely post here if they do decide to buy the story!
Hope everyone is staying safe and healthy!
