Proofs
This morning, when I checked my email, I found the proof for “Dinner for Three,” a story set in my superhero universe that is coming out in the next issue of A Thousand Faces.
There is something fun about looking over a proof of my very own story. It’s a little sneak peek as to what it will look like when it’s published. And a proof makes the acceptance real, at least to me. I may have had an email acceptance sitting in my inbox for the past six months, but now the story is actually here, right in front of me.
I also revised my bio, which was fun. I was able to mention my baby girl in it, which gave me a happy.
All in all, a very pleasant morning. I hope you all have some good news to brighten your day. And, hey, if you haven’t read issue 9 of ATF, click on the link above and check it out. There are some really good superhero stories in this issue, including one by my writing group mate, Stephanie.

Hey! We get to have our names on the same magazine cover.
My story, “A Son of the Night”, will be in the next A Thousand Faces issue, too. I just got done going over the proof.
I look forward to reading “Dinner for Three”.

We’ll be TOC buddies — awesome! ATF publishes so many of my favorite writers. I always feel I’m in good company.
