You remember Nature? Good mag. Happy people. Publishing my story, "Alloy"? Yes. So they have this sister publication, Nature Physics. You remember physics? Good field. Happy people. Giving me a major and stuff. Yes.

Nature Physics will be publishing my short story, "Search Strings."

It turns out the shiny has not worn off yet. I am pretty bouncy over this one.

We have long suspected that I am by nature a Mris In Motion rather than Mris At Rest.

Sweet!

I liked "Alloy" btw. Much better than the usual Nature story. (e.g. "Here's some neat science!""What?" "It works like this." "Impossible!" "No, really possible.""Oooh.")

Are you saying the typical Nature story is sorta like Mythbusters, then?

I swear there's a string theory joke in here somewhere, but it will take a better person than me to find it.

Yay for the shiny!

You could have pretended that it would take a worse person than you to actually make it. None of us would have been the wiser.

YAY!!! I had no idea there was a "Nature Physics" though. But many congrats to you, my dear! ;)

The shiny and bouncy should stay, anyway. They're more fun, and they suit you. :D

There are several other publications in the Nature family, too. They are willing to tell you a lot of what needs hearing about science.

Oh, yay! That's awesome! (And made me laugh a little, too, remembering what you were saying about the likelihood of selling them more stories soon.)
