Writing

My story, The Short Bus, was just cited today in a "Learning from Masters" post on a creative writing blog, alongside some other folks you may have heard of, like Neil Gaiman and Ursula LeGuin. I am both flattered and floored. Thanks, rgilbert!

ETA: Just saw this on Facebook, in regards to "The Short Bus:"

"You haven't read this. You should. You've probably never heard of Marcy. You will. Don't be fooled by the magazine title. This isn't genre; this is great." -- Lee Greenberg

My goodness! Really feeling the writerly love today! Thanks, all!

Everything Else

Thoughts and prayers go out to all the folks in Japan and all along the Pacific Rim who have been affected by the earthquake(s) and tsunami. You can donate to Red Cross relief efforts here.

(As you've no doubt noticed, I've started titling my posts again. Now that the good folks over at SFWA are carrying my RSS feed on Twitter, I need a title, otherwise it just tweets my name and a link. Just in case you were wondering at the change.)
