First sale

24 Comments Published by February 12th, 2007 in blog, writing

The magazine Dark Wisdom has accepted my short story “The Robidermist’s Steed.”

They’re a pro market, so I’m very excited. :-)

No word yet on when the story will appear, but I’ll be sure to let you know.

    Surprised? Not me.

    Congratulations, Deanna! That’s a very graphic and horrific market, sharp writers there.

    Congrats!

    Thank you all!

    Pam, my story isn’t graphic at all and isn’t “horrific” in the way typically ascribed to that word. I’m glad they liked it, though. :-)
