Sale!

“Urn of Ravalos” to Intergalactic Medicine Show for the winter 2009 issue.
This was another situation where they asked me to do a rewrite – fix the ending, and I did, and it worked. I’ve had 4 stories where I’ve had rewrite requests and in 3 of them, sales followed. Which tells me that I probably ought to do more editing and revision before I send the things out in the first place, but sometimes I can’t see what’s wrong with it, and an editor can.

    I’ve been guilty of sending things out, in the hopes of netting some editor feedback. I wonder if that’s cheating?
