I have a new favorite phrase in the English language...
...and it is "We would like to publish your story".
Yes, folks, I am delighted to announce that Daily Science Fiction has accepted "Off The Map" for publication!
My first sale. Like, for actual money. And getting to say I'm a published author (or will be, anyway, when it comes out). Wow.
(I have known about this for almost a month. But now the contract has arrived and been agreed to and sent back, so it's all official and stuff. And I get to Tell People!)
If there is a more beautiful way for an email to start than that, I don't know what it is. And I should know, given how many times I re-read it to make sure it really did say that.
Published author. Huh.
