I just received a strange e-mail from Alien Skin suggesting that they liked a story I sent them quite a bit but did not have room for another horror story in their magazine so would it be ok if they switched venues on it to Nocturnal Ooze? They indicated that if I was ok with this they would send out an acceptance letter shortly.
Soooo.....it's a little weird and I'm holding back my excitement for the actual acceptance letter but I *think* this is a go and I'm about to see my second sale!
By the way, this is a story I floated around Hatrack a few months ago. I sent it to First Lines for their November deadline and they said close but no cigar. It was called "Title Undecided" and involved a writer whose titles start manifesting themselves into reality.

I second that, but a bit more optimistically. Yeah, I know. I'm a card-carrying pessimist, but...
WOO HOO!!
