It wasn't THE call. But it wasn't the worst thing that's ever happened to me either.

Yeah, I guess it is kind of wow, huh. I had met this guy at a conference last year, and he is super nice. Really, he didn't have to talk to me in person, but he thought it would be better in case I had any questions.

Actually that's how I first published with Samhain too - the editor (who is no longer there) gave me some general notes about pushing scenes together and some other stuff. I remember it was summer, and I worked 40 hours straight that week to fix it up. Then I resubmitted and she loved it.
