I’ll whip something up soon.</p>
<p>At any rate, I wanted to share my little bit of news: check out this list of this quarter’s <a href="http://wotfblog.galaxypress.com/2008/12/2nd-set-of-honorable-mentions-for-4th.html" target="links"> Honorable Mentions in the Writers of the Future Contest</a>. Oh, okay, it’s a long list, I won’t make you search. I’m on there.</p>
<p>I was finally convinced to try sending to WotF for the first time this quarter — I’m still eligible because I’ve only had one pro sale. When I decided to start entering, there were only a few days left before the deadline, so I sent in a fabulist short story from my <a href="http://faerye.net/post/thesis-matters" target="links">thesis</a> even though I wasn’t sure it was a great fit for the contest. But it got an Honorable Mention, so I think that constitutes ‘encouragement’. I feel encouraged, at any rate!</p>http://faerye.net/post/oh-my-oh-my-oh-myOh my oh my oh my2003-10-15T13:54:32+00:002008-11-06T22:49:18+00:00<P>Should I tell you? You’re competition! But you’re my audience…I shall! <a href="http://www.powells.com" target="links">Powell’s</a> is giving away the <a href="http://powells.com/contest_OED.html" target="links"><span class="caps">OED</span></a> to celebrate that beautiful tome’s 75th birthday. 20 volumes! A $3,000 value, they say! How can they set a value on that book! How I’ve missed it since I left the sheltering nest of the <span class="caps">CWRU</span> IP block…How glorious should it be mine!</p>
<p>Hey, I see you entering! It’s mine! <span class="caps">SCAT</span>!</p>
