March Madness Update!

I seldom have the habit of writing updates because frankly nothing all that interesting happens to warrant a full-blown post, but last week has been incredibly generous with good news. The occasion begs for a short post and as swamped with work as I am, I need something short and sweet, rather than lengthy. I mean it took me a week on write my post on a writer’s age. One week!

Anyway, in the span of seven days, March 8th and March 15th, the following happened:

1. I got accepted into Clarion, but you already know that. That piece of news deserved its own announcement and how many more Clarion posts there will be… You have no idea.
2. Maxim Jukabowski has approach me to reprint my erotica story “Pages & Play Things” in his MAMMOTH BOOK OF NEW EROTICA 13, which makes this my first Best Of sale and the first time I’m actually selling a reprint. I can be nothing but thrilled. This story is one of those works that I just experimented and went completely crazy for and the story has been doing well, since it first got into Geek Love.
3. I won a review contest with a translation in Bulgarian of my Pornokitsch review for Kaaron Warren’s “Dead Sea Fruit”. The contest did not only got me a runner-up position, but a small monetary reward – not bad.
4. I have a new sudden client, which I didn’t expect. Given some very turbulent events in my offline life, I thought the job I did for the company was not up to my own personal standards, but somehow I have impressed the hell out of the owner and now I’m in charge of the entire content.

I’m still in deadline hell, which I predict will end around March 20th, but then I’ve to run a ton of errands and plan a trip for my one week stay at the capitol. Madness I tell you. Madness!
