Hot off the Press

[Mouse]

So...

I have had a short story accepted into Dreamspinner Press's Hot off the Press anthology, which'll be released in October. Yay!

All stories are m/m romance and feature writing/publishing themes. My story is about a kleptomaniac who steals a book during an author's signing event.

Obvs. don't have too much info at the mo, but I'll update the thread when I do.

Yay, you writing goddess!

 

[ratsy]

Wowzers, you are flying this year! Congrats

 

[Mouse]

Cheered me up this morning when I saw the email! Especially as it began with the scary 'thank you for your submission, we were thrilled to receive almost eighty submissions, but as you can imagine, this made the process especially challenging.' And I thought the next sentence was going to be, 'so unfortunately, you didn't make the cut.'

 

[ratsy]

I subbed a story to an anthology a couple months ago and then I found out they'd had over 800 submissions!!!! What!!?? So needless to say, I don't have my hopes up.

 

[Mouse]

Wowsers. (I'm stealing your word).

Wowsers. (I'm stealing your word).

It's a good word. I see you're using the British spelling..hahaha

 

[Mouse]

Of course.

So to complete the circle, can I steal one of your books while you're signing at the launch?

Absolutely. I expect there will be half-naked man torso on the front cover.

Congrats, Mouse.

Cheers!

 

[TheDustyZebra]

In that case, I'll steal one, too!

Congratulations, writing goddess!

Woo-hooh... congratulations Mouse.

PS Ratsy - my cat likes your 'wowsers' - in fact he's really going to town playing around with it!
