Thank you for submitting your short story, Into Stone, for publication in Fantastic Stories of the Imagination. Unfortunately, Fantastic is currently overstocked and I am not buying any fiction. That's the bad news. The good news is that I would like to purchase your story for my new E-Zine Cosmic Speculative Fiction, or COSMIC SF. COSMIC SF will be a quarterly fiction magazine containing SF/F stories 2-15,000 words in length. COSMIC SF will be distributed via e-mail in PDF format. More than 1,000 readers will receive the first issue and I hope to have twice that many subscribers by the start of 2005.

My first PAID SALE!!!! And I didn't submit it to the market in question - it was actually requested by the editor for a new market!!!!

I am soooooooooooo jazzed! :)
