As you may or may not know, on the 4th of July I had my first story published. It is a short story titled “Apprentice” and published by the new e-press/audio press Flying Island Press. It isn’t the first story I’ve sold. That will be coming out in the August 2010 issues of Sorcerous Signals (free e-magazine) and Mystic Signals (print – available on Amazon.com).

All I can say is “Whoops!” With everything that’s been going on I almost forgot my weekly post. “What’s been going on?” you ask. Well, for one, I’m going on two weeks of vacation starting Saturday. That in itself isn’t what is distracting me. It’s all the OTHER things I’m trying to get out of the way before I go. For example, I had Episode 8 of ‘Get Published’ to finish and get into the feed.
