Finally got it right
Sep. 17th, 2012 10:30 pmDreamspinner picked up my holiday story Amidst the Christmas Snow with the caveat that I change the title. Done. That was slapped on there after much whining on chat to my first reader
evil_little_dog because i had to call it SOMETHING. Now what to call it is another matter. They said they might have suggestions in the edits which I'm willing to wait for.
I'm not sure anyone could hate putting a title on things as much as I do!
I'm really thrilled about this. The last couple years I've tried for the DSP story a day advent calender for the holiday and ended up with stories sold but not in the calender (my novella The Darkest Midnight in December was originally a short for there). I'm more action adventure than I am sweet holiday stories. I guess I finally got the mix right.
Title In Flux is about a search and rescue worker having to go out early Christmas morning to save a life, along with a few surprise characters (okay not so surprising if you know me at all).
Also I'm nearly at 47K for the Scarred Soldier novel which is helping with the anxiety of OMG I'm going to fall short and fail.
