Recently I've had two rejections and one acceptance. The acceptance has made both rejections worth it!
So now, the rejections first:
My Atlantis Story, "Poseidon's Claim" was rejected by Pill Hill Press. It was originally short listed, but they said they had over 200 stories and mine didn't make it in. Oh well.
My Rainbow story was rejected by Shimmer. Form rejection. So I sent it to A Fly in Amber to see what they think of it.
And now for the acceptance.....drum roll.....
"Poseidon's Claim" has found a home with Aurora Wolf. You can read it here. ***Please go and leave a comment for me!!!***
Not bad. It's the first acceptance this year since Mindlfights in December. How has the new year been treating you?

Congratulations! That's so awesome that a previously rejected story found a new home. It's inspiring ;) I can't wait to read it. And well, you know how my new year has been so far. *fingers crossed* Fight the good fight!
I am so excited for you. Congratulations! You are setting the bar very high. Thanks for this happy post, and I look forward to reading your story.
One acceptance can make a hundred rejections feel worth it!

Congratulations! That's why we should never give up. Rejections mean we haven't found the right home yet.
Congrats! I'm half way through it right now and finding it quite enjoyable! Partially because I love the ocean so much. :D

Yeah for an acceptance. Those are just the best.
Congrats! That is great news. I'll check it out after I pick up the boy from school. :D
Wow I wish I had so much success. I'm looking for galleries to exhibit my paintings. As being synesthete I live a life in colors. Synesthesia means that I see colors when I see words and numbers.I transform this in paintings of names and birthdays.
Congratulations!!! I am so, so excited for you, how fantastic that your story found a loving home :) Can't wait to read it!
Congratulations! You are prolific and you send out your work, which takes courage.
I am inspired.
