A contract from Analog

Posted .

I got my contract from Analog today for the story I sold them a couple of months ago. I’m glad to see it, because I had this paranoid fear that the sale would fall apart somehow.

This is technically my third professional sale — I’ve been given the prize for my 2nd-place Writers of the Future story, but I haven’t actually sold that story for inclusion in next year’s anthology. (There’s no doubt that I will. They just haven’t sent me a contract yet.)

With this sale, I am now eligible to become a regular member of SFWA: Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America. I’ll be sending in my application soon.
