Delighted that Black Beacon Books have taken my story, 'Driverless', for their 'Murder and Machinery' anthology next year. A story rejected thirteen times, albeit held for consideration by Apex, before I gave it a fairly fundamental polish informed by my 'credo', cutting it down by a fifth compared to its original length whilst adding a more satisfying ending. After that, it was accepted on only its second foray into the market. Proof if proof were needed...
Meanwhile, Daily Science Fiction have taken my flash 'Three Wishes' for my fourth appearance in it's (web)pages. And, if I'm noting the number of times it's been sent in to fight its rivals in the slush pile, this was just it's fourth sortie. Equally delighted.
Can I say delighted again?
