It’s been ten and a half months since I sold a story. Today, when I arrived home from work, I found a 9″x12″ envelope from Penny Publications in the mailbox. I nervously opened it, hoping that it wasn’t just a fancy pitch for me to renew my Analog subscription.

Well, if they wanted me to renew, they sure found the right incentive. The envelope contained a contract for my short story “Upgrade” (originally titled “The Nuclear Option“).

It’s been ten and a half months since my last sale, so it feels really good to get one.
