Hm ... okay, now I'm torn as to whether to keep my Dancing Snoopy icon or swipe yours, which seems to be a better animation :-)

Thanks! I don't write much short stuff--this is only my third short story sale--so it's fun when I can put something out there.

YAAYYYYYY!!!!

kristine_smith March 9 2011, 22:05:35 UTC

I'm pretty happy.

Many congrats! It's always fun when I get to "recategorize" writers I know - now I'll think of you as a short story-ist!

Thanks!

Oy, Kris-the-short-storyist. That's strange. Short works are a struggle for me, although this one came more easily than the others.

Overall, shorts are a fun way to quickly set up and explore new worlds and characters. Speed dating, as opposed to the serial monogamy of novels.
