Story Sale
So I just realized I forgot to announce a story sale from October. Kind of odd to forget, I know, but I made the sale right around the time we went public with Oz Reimagined. In all the excitement of announcing my first book sale, it completely slipped my mind that I never actually announced the story sale, though I've been counting it among my fiction sales when talking about fiction sales in general. It doesn't mean I'm not thrilled about this sale though.
ANYWAY ...
I am pleased to belatedly inform you all that I've sold my sword & sorcery novelette "Queen of Queens" to Weird Tales. This is my third story sale to Weird Tales (all pending), and my second story sale set in the universe of the Fractured Lands (both pending in Weird Tales). This one is a mix of good fun and extreme darkness, and overall it was a blast to write--research involved rereading some of the Fafhrd & Gray Mouser tales by Fritz Leiber, and also reading up on honey and honeybees.
Thanks to T.L. Morganfield, Aliette de Bodard, Christopher Kastensmidt, and Adam Corbin-Fusco for their extremely helpful critiques.
Looking forward to seeing it in print!
