Already a Better Day Than Yesterday

Got up early, got Cal to Daycare--he still has the froggy cough, but at least the pinkeye's gone, so they can deal--and went to work out, where I got some interesting ideas about "Trouble Again". Then came back to discover an email from Doorways; the editor says he doesn't quite get "Fin de Siecle" but he wants it anyways, ambiguity and all! Which certainly works for me.

So this puts me suddenly further ahead than behind, for the first time in 2008. The list, as it now stands:

Projects Sent:
“Marya Nox” (on hold, closed market)
“When I’m Armoring My Belly”, to ChiZine/Leisure Books SSC 2008
“The Speed of Pain”, to Cemetery Dance Magazine
Projects Accepted:
“Song Of The Mother”, Not One of Us
“Sown From Salt,” The Harrow
“The Jacaranda Smile”, Apparitions anthology
“Fin De Siecle”, Doorways.

Ah, yes. As that guy from RoboCop would say, "Iiiiiii...LIKE IT!"

Thank you! Now I just have to start finishing some new stuff, as well as placing the old stuff.;)

Yeah, it's funny...the way it is now, removed from its larger context, it reads as a very "you" sort of piece. I wonder if "Chimera" will look the same, once it's finished.
