Story accepted today!

One of my science fiction stories, "Tangwen's Last Heist," was contracted today by Pill Hill Press for their Zero Gravity: Adventures in Deep Space anthology. It took me a few different stories to get my foot in the door there. I'm glad this one worked out. I'm happy knowing more of my science fiction is getting out there.

On the downside, I didn't win the flash fiction contest at Crossed Genres. Though I still do have to write another story for them for a different call. I really should work on that now...
