The Peytonometer says "We have a winner!"
I received word today that my short story "Gus and Mariel" has been accepted for Library of the Living Dead Press' Attack of the 50FT Book anthology! The antho, as the title suggests, revolves around giant creatures that attack and destroy cities!
This will be my ninth story accepted for publication...bringing my story batting average (cue the stadium organ!) to .321!
Here's a brief summary of "Gus and Mariel":
Heartbroken after his beloved Mariel is taken away, Gus the Puffin accidentally steps into radioactive goo and grows to epic proportions. Desperate to find his lost love, he heads east, leaving an inadvertent path of destruction in his wake.
I'll provide updates as I learn more about the publication timetable and editing process.
