Christine will be shaking her head sadly because this is not a paying market - but they're publishing my story The Lemon Handlers in Issue #145.

The editors are really great, and incredibly fast - they accepted my story within an hour of when I submitted it.

Paid or not, it's always a kick to see your story in print.

Congratulations!

Oooh, I just got an e-mail saying that my story's been selected for the 3rd Annual Anthology of Editor's Choices.

Fame and fortune shall surely follow.

Thanks, y'all!

Usually I do get paid for fiction (although I am not hung up on payment) but I had reasons for sending my story there. For one thing, I wanted to get to know the editors, who are great guys. It'll pay off in the long run.

Congrats! That's terrific, and it should look good on the cover letters.
