Wish Me Luck

Yesterday morning I submitted a (very) short story to a magazine for their monthly contest.

This is the first time I've done such a thing and I'm anxious to see how I fare (the contest usually draws about 500 entries a month).

I'd be thrilled if I make the final five but like any sane person I'm hoping for an outright win.

The grand prize is nothing more than publication in the magazine but that's one more publishing credit than I have right now and the more of those I can display the better.

If my story doesn't make it to at least the final five I'll take it, polish it up, make it slightly longer to tell a "fuller" story and more likely than not post it here.

Wish me luck.
