I've had an awesome week. And it just got even more awesome!
First, on Sunday, the literary goddess known as Blodeuedd (surely you remember her from Welsh Celtic mythology; she was the one made out of flowers) posted her review of Beltane. It's a great review; please visit www.books-forlife.blogspot.com to read it. There's also a link on my Review Links page on aeess.com (readers 18+ only!).
Then I received an acceptance e-mail from Circlet Press. They're already publishing my short story "In the Lair of the Monster" in the Like a God's Kiss anthology. On Tuesday, I found out they also accepted "Invisible Touch" in the Like a Mask Removed (superhero erotica) anthology!
Thursday, there was more awesome anthology news: Maxim Jakubowski wants "Iced," a short story that premiered in Lucrezia magazine, for the Mammoth Book of Best New Erotica. What an honor to have a story selected without even submitting it!
BTW, if you are interested in building your own sci fi/fantasy anthology, please visit AnthologyBuilder.com. They've now accepted five of my stories, so look for them.
AND THEN TODAY...I found out my short story "Soaked" is going to appear in Cleis Press's Best Lesbian Romance 2010! Two books that have the word "Best" in the title, and I made the cut both times?! My head is spinning with my good fortune.
Thank you, Editor Elingtin, for making our short stories shine.
