Almost forgot to say: I sold a story. Coyote Wild bought "In the Velvet Swamp," which was inspired by an [livejournal.com profile] elisem pendant and is also dedicated to [livejournal.com profile] angeyja and [livejournal.com profile] callunav.

Also there are some swampish references in the chapter I revised earlier today. But not so much in the chapter I'm doing right now. Which is as far as I go toward making this livejournal entry thematic in some way.

Yay, sale!

Is this to Coyote Wild in general, or to the special YA issue?

I submitted to CW in general, and the editbeing who accepted it was Mac Stone, not Sherwood, so while it'd be a perfectly acceptable story for a YA issue, I think it's not for this one.

Yay story, and yay Coyote Wild!
I just sold them a sonnet, so perhaps we will be in the same issue (unless it's the YA issue, which I sadly have nothing for). I'd like that.

As I said to Mer above, I think it's just for the regular issue, even though there's nothing that would render the story definitively non-YA.

Big congrats!

Nothing I can say, however, will be quite as awesome as mmerriam's bouncing elephant icon, above.

Two whoo-hoo's in one blog entry. Congrats on the sale! And yet another source of good stuff to read!

I'm damn lucky to get it - I'm so behind on sending acceptances and final rejections. :) I was holding my breath you'd not already sold it.

I generally would send out a letter withdrawing the story if that was the case, but e-mail problems do make that more fraught.

Yay! (That's for the sale--not the swampish references. Although they're good too.)

You've been consulting with my grandfather on this matter, haven't you?
