Well, you know how I was just bitching and moaning about two rejections today? I should have known . . .

For every two rejections I get lately, I get one acceptance.

Flash Me! Magazine has purchased, "Windowless Rooms in the Eye of the Mind," for publication in its next issue, debuting July 31st.

Normally they don't respond until a week before the issue appears unless all four editors come back with a "buy," rating on the story.

If it's the featured story for the issue, the pay doubles.

That's the kind of thing that will improve my mood.
