Datlow/Link Years Best
Sep. 19th, 2006 12:08 pmI just found out that I got an Honorable Mention :) (or is that recommended reading - one day I will remember to check). My second. This time it was for "Impractical Magic" in ASIM #17. The stories in ASIM #17 just keep getting noticed. Mostly the other stories, but this time it's my one. It's my Judith story. Jewish feminist calls up the King of Demons and confronts sticky notes. Fun and silly. The Judith novel it emerged from is still waiting its next rejection, but when I send it off somewhere else I'll have to change the cover letter. Innit cool?
I only write one or two stories a year, so this is exceptionally wondrous. And I have had a truly awful last couple of weeks (pain still lingering an' all) so it's good when nice things happen. And here I thought today was going to be a bad day because the first thing I did was open my rates bill and discover my rates have doubled. I am *so* glad I was wrong and that today contains sparks of glee. Thank you, Sally Beasley, for liking my story and including it in ASIM #17!

cassiphone has given the full list of Aussies and there's a bunch of great stories - I'm in outstanding company. Also some surprising omissions.
Excuse me while I go away and do that bounce-off-walls-in-glee thing.
