I awoke to good news this morning. Heliotrope wants to buy my story "He angles, she refracts." The cool thing is that this story has been hitting the markets for almost ten years and earned over twenty rejections. I've always liked this story, a story with a world of narcissists and a stranger courting the protagonist's reflections away. I knew I could find a home for it. Someday! Today!

And Ximena had come up with a much better title for it. The title used to be "Shattered."

Hey, persistence does pay off.
