Contest, On the Premises

I found out this morning that my story "To Wade Alone" placed second place in the "First" contest at On the Premises. After the editing process, it should be available on their Web site.

Also, in regards to the story that will be appearing in the inaugural edition of An Honest Lie, I received the artist agreement today, and things seem to be progressing easily along with that.

I'm not one of those authors to complain about theme issues of journals or sites; on the contrary, I love them. I love taking the theme and coming up with the most bizarre interpretation of it I can imagine, working in all kinds of different elements, but keeping it within the bounds of what I think an editor is going to want. That is a lot of fun.
