I’ve sent off three stories so far: The Insecure Writer’s Support Group for their “Dark Matter” anthology, Shoreline of Infinity with a humorous story about velyr at a sci-fi convention, and On The Premises with a story about smells.
I’m also working on a story (due tomorrow of course) for my 12 Stories in 12 Months challenge, a “Saints & Sinners” LBGT story, something that “pushes the boundaries” for F(r)iction, and three different sci-fi anthologies for Zombies Need Brains (The Modern Deity’s Guide to Surviving Humanity, Derelict, and When Worlds Collide).
Hopefully somewhere in all this short story writing, I can take a few minutes to look back over the novel and see if I agree with that agent who said he couldn’t connect with Lontano as a POV character …
