Looks like 2017 started strong with publication credits for a lot of you. Congrats, all! I've finally joined the ranks of 2017 stories with 'A Century of Princes' at IGMS. My first at this market. Also, it's the audio selection for Issue 55 and I rarely get audio'd so...kind of liking this February....

I, too, had a really great year - better than last year's! (As long as the last original story makes its appearance later this month.) In 2015 I had 11 acceptances & pubbed 10 stories (9 originals, 1 reprint). For 2016, I've had 15 acceptances & pubbed 13 (10 originals, 3 reprints). 2016 Pub...

Congrats to...well, everyone! Lots of new stories out in the world by all of you. And I'd like to throw one more of mine on the Success pile (which I think will be the last one of mine out in 2016.) The antho Time Travel Tales is now available on Amazon and has "Grandma Was a Time Machine"...

Story out today at Persistent Visions. Art's Chair

Yeah, yeah, another Camelotian (Arthurian?) tale. But it's my version so it involves a Barcalounger and a sledgehammer. And probably profanity.

My story First of Frost which was pubbed back in July is now free to read online. Also, Lackington's usually has great artwork paired with their stories and this issue was no exception. Particularly love the illo for mine (also viewable at link) So if you're inclined for a frosty read this October: ...

I have a reprint(!) in Flash Fiction Online's October issue.
Devil Got You on Speed Dial

Congrats, Rebecca! ... and Aaron!...and Emily!

Resurrecting this thread because the TOC for this antho was announced AND I have a story in it! As do some other folk you may recognize from around here. And to save you one click thru, here's the posted TOC: Auston Habershaw - The Day it All Went Sideways Martin L Shoemaker - Visits (with a Strange...

Thanks, all.

I did! And I'm a big fan of seeing stories I got to preview in the wild.

LaurieG wrote:...should we just call you hlf? Or HL?

HL is fine. So's Fullerton. But I'll answer to hlf, too.

Congrats to everyone since the last time I posted - which is a bunch of you! So many stories to read... And it seems like this summer is going to be very nice to me and even though some things aren't out in the world yet I'm just going to lump them all here - because soon they should be.

FWIW, I only broke the HM barrier once.

Thanks, all!

New story out at Triptych Tales. My first of 2016.

*may contain wild profanity & alternate timelines

Flash, flash & more flash. (I may be running out of flash pieces but I'm ok with that.) A Mary Shelley Moment (micro) in Fine Linen, January Horses Not Included (flash) in Freeze Frame Fiction, Experimental Issue Things Beneath Our Feet (flash) in Freeze Frame Fiction, YA Issue Don't Talk to the...

Thanks, all, for the kind words about my story. And since we're talking rejections (in the Success thread? what's wrong with you people!?) I'll let you know that story received 16 rejections and 2 never-made-it-to-pub acceptances before it finally made an appearance. And like amoskalik my first sale...

I have a story out at AE!

Also, I should post more because it takes me eighteen tries to remember how to do links & such on this forum.

Way to own the A&A slush pile, Baker & Birch!

Second place for me!

Haven't posted in awhile because I don't always log in when I skim the forum...but July is being rather nice to me. (Or at least the fruits of my labor are visible this months. Most of these acceptances came ages ago, but for some reason they have all managed to get pubbed this summer(for those of u...

I have a story in this month's Penumbra (the Lewis Carroll issue for those of you who regularly sub over there.)

So...I know you've all moved on to either waiting on Paranormal responses or working on Aliens, but my story made it into the LC issue. Yay!

(This is my third Penumbra sale so it's sure to be charming, right?)

Anyone want to trade Arthurian Legends? Mine's about 3000 words. (Doesn't have to be that theme. Will read whatever you have.)

And I'm out in the final round for Pain. Dangit. Me too, alas. Me three. Though I haven't sent mine anywhere else yet. It's wracked up some travel time that one. And I think my most rejected before selling is currently 16. I've had a few hit that number so it's almost my lucky number now. (I'd pref...

Anyone want to swap Lewis Carroll stories? Mine's about 1900 words--and dark.

I don't want to jinx myself, but I haven't heard anything on my pain sub yet. Also in for Paranormal. Not sure about LC though. I seem to be hitting every other theme this year.

Feel free to send my way. I always have opinions to spare.

I have a story up today at Buzzy: A Game of Brinkmanship at Copper Beach

http://buzzymag.com/a-game-of-brinkmanship-at-copper-beach-by-h-l-fullerton/

It's not genre but...I have a story--The Card-- in this January's Flash Fiction Online issue. So, yay, success!

I'll swap.
