Sold my Minkus story!

I found the email this morning. AlienSkin is buying my story "Minkus, the Masterful Magic Mender" for their April/May issue.

Yes, they are paying! 0.5 cents per word. emoticon

Re: Sold my Minkus story!

Well, it took me more than two years of submitting the story in order to place it. So, don't give up, guys. Get those stories written and sent out to magazines.

Re: Sold my Minkus story!

Just proves that with enough work and attempts anyone can get published, I guess getting the first few breaks is the hardest, at least, with Firlefanz it seems like that. emoticon
