Swimming Back with an Acceptance Letter

Aeon just let me know they're buying "Swimming Back from Hell by Moonlight." Yaaaaay! Maybe we're not supposed to play favorites, but I can come right out and say I think this is one of my best. It's got girl-Orpheus, who is a picture book illustrator, and hell is in fact full of mice. And I wrote it partly for [livejournal.com profile] cristalia and partly for Andrew, and I like it when stories that are for people don't turn out too narrow to be for anyone else. (Although I think the ways in which it's for Leah are a great deal more sidelong than that.)

You know what this means, of course: I have sold more stories than I've written this year. Again. So I have to write another story. Wailie woe etc.
