julesjonesI've been more or less offline for a week, so here's the news...
The latest episode of The Syndicate was released on Tuesday. You can now buy The Syndicate: Four Leaf Clover from those nice people at Loose Id. This one's a novelette-length Fling, and was the result of someone at Loose Id thinking that it would be nice if we did a St Patrick's Day story. Those already familiar with Allard's interesting personality can probably imagine what his reaction was on being presented with geeen beer... You can read a short extract on the Loose Id website.
Raven Electrick rejected Ghost Train.
Two stories submitted to Alyson's Ultimate Gay Erotica 2006. I asked about the print run for last year's anthology, and it appears that I have disqualified myself for the Writers of the Future competition (assuming that any genre counts, which was what I understood the rules to mean).
In the end I didn't send the submission package to Tor before I left. I'd had some very useful suggestions from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
feetnotes, which resulted in some rewriting that I wanted to let settle. I've got what I think is a workable synopsis, printed out and stuffed in an envelope with a cover letter, all ready to go once I get home and re-read just to check, so there need not be another bout of running around in circles before sending it. Further comments will be welcome, though. :-)

Date: 2005-03-10 06:09 am (UTC)Is the Writers of the Future competition a gay fiction competition? How did you disqualify yourself? I have a file folder of fiction and contracts and stuff in my desk that is already starting to make me nervous with its complexity and labyrinthian rules.
What is 'Ghost Train'? A short or a novel? Future stuff again?

Ghost Train's a flash fiction specfic piece.
Glad you liked the newest story. :-)
