A good review! And no rejections!

At last, a Monday that doesn't suck. There's a very positive review of my story "To Someone Who Needs Prayer" (from issue 61 of Hub) over at The Fix (much thanks to [livejournal.com profile] marshall_payne for pointing me to it...and speaking of, Marshall's got an interview with Gregory Frost over there as well).  And the other day, a nice comment about the story showed up in Hub's comments section for the issue, so yayness!

After my last few Monday mornings, I was kind of fearing today. But amazingly, when I got online this morning, there were no rejections in my inbox. And when the postman came a little bit later, there were no dreaded SASEs of Doom awaiting me in the mail. Needless to say, I am much relieved.

Woot! Fix can be tough re: reviews. Well done! And on a Monday! That deserves one more exclamation!

Just read Prayer. Excellent revision. Perfect pacing and a final line kicker!

Thanks, Todd! All the great comments from folks at Odyssey helped a ton.

Sigh. Now I miss it too.
