(It is today for me already, I'm just waiting on it being today for DSF)

Awesome! Congratulations! Gonna go read it now!

wotf006 I do get to share an issue with Nick! Yes! And... I'm doubly excited to follow in greenroom's steps. Sojourn for Ephah is the cover story for issue 30: http://www.intergalacticmedicineshow.com/ And Eric Wilkerson's illustration is beautiful! I'm incredibly honored. Congratulations, that is ...

I've received an acceptance for a story from OSC's IGMS. More details when it's published (which should be pretty soon...they move from acceptance to publication pretty quickly it seems).

Nick

Congratulations, Nick!

Again thanks to all I missed. But here is the link I promised---paraphrasing a movie line, "ahead and to the right". No, I mean all the way down to the bottom. wotf007 Blue Home I can see why the first place got First but not the third place story...it seems on the same level as the three...

Congratulations, LD! Looking forward to reading it!

So THAT'S where you found the old issues of sci-fi mags....

Wow, that's awesome Brad!

First: It was great meeting and hanging out with quite a few WotF people: Tom, Dantzel, Alex, David Carani, Marie Croke, Jacob Boyd, and...I'm probably leaving someone out. I'm really sorry to have missed all the others who attended Chicon. Takeaways: The biggest advice I have is this: you never kno...

The September issue of Penumbra, featuring my short story "The Memory of Huckleberries" is now available. http://penumbra.musapublishing.com/ I'm so excited. My name is BIG! WOW! Rebecca your name is HUGE!! Congrats! I've got a 6,000-word story in the current issue of Emerald Sky magazine...

I have a big success today: my first pro publication. My flash piece "30 Pounds of Human Tissue" is today's offering from DSF. I mention in my author notes a friend who made a challenge to write and submit a flash every month (targeting DSF in particular). That friend is Dustin. So thanks...

I await the vagaries and whims of Amazon to work ...

I second that! That is an awesome cover! Wow. --And I just bought it for Nook.

Martin has posted 6.08% of all posts. Brad has posted 4.87% of all posts. Soulmirror has posted 4.43% of all posts. Gold, silver, bronze Olympic medals for you all, I reckon. wotf033 This is sort of like doing /played in World of Warcraft--it's best to not know that sort of thing. No one wants to s...

Honorable Mention.

Hello everybody, My name is Alberto and I sent my first submission ever to the contest for Q3 V.29. I heard about the contest last year and have since bought V.27 & V.28 which I enjoy very much. I've only posted twice in the past in the "Problems with E-Submitting" thread to share my ...

Sadly, it rings a bit like a bad Sci-Fi Channel original movie...

Luckily I was done with my morning coffee.

Full results on the blog. Joni has been busy this evening!

I believe we need to congratulate Tina's husband for this one as well correct? Wasn't this the entry he zipped to the post office at zero hour? Quite a story!

Looks like we have more congratulations in order for forum members...and commiserations for others. Announcement on PRWeb.

You can all come out of the results closet now...

It looks like congratulations are in order for Steve (CONGRATS STEVE!), but i only got that from the posts. I know the contest is over... Are we free to admit we didn't win yet or is there still an official release pending...? I think you just did.... I was gonna say... Sorry to hear you didn't win...

Since we're on a Mike Resnick diversion, he wrote a couple of how-to books regarding fiction. 1) Putting It Together: Turning Sow's Ear Drafts Into Silk Purse Stories -- in this one he takes his own short stories and shows various drafts and why he revised certain sections, etc. Pretty handy. http:/...

Sorry to hear that David. That sort of thing seems more painful to me, especially after submitting super early and waiting well beyond 6 months. *wince*

I will be attending Chicon as well--hope to see everyone there.

Sorry to hear the bad news, Isto. Keep writing and keep submitting!

Congrats Marina! What a great market to crack!

I'm really sorry to hear about all the rejections. I was so sure all the hold pile people were at least HMs or higher. Rejection sucks, no doubt, but keep at it! Perseverance is the key don't give up. Don't make DF's job easier, if you think DF hates your writing you're helping him out by not submit...

Congratulations! Awesome news!

Hee.. so is anyone reading these days? :) I just started Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson. Quite the interesting magic system... Haven't read Warbreaker yet, however, I really, really enjoyed the Mistborn series (another interesting magic system). Right now I'm in the middle of a few books--a horrib...

My dog in the Q1 fight has long since been submitted elsewhere, but I'll cheer the rest of you on.



And add to the post count, view count, page count, and my own count.

Happy Birthday Tina!

Excellent news! Congratulations on having IGMS as your first sale! I can't wait to read the story.

Congratulations everyone!
