My first real author credential

I'm excited to announce my short story We Taught Sand to Think will be in the next Fark Fiction anthology. After going through a horrible job search and receiving several rejections trying to get published the first time, I was feeling a bit down.

Rejections are part of the process, but acceptance is really nice. A wonderful jolt of dopamine to combat the imposter syndrome.

Fark Fiction isn't huge, and probably not considered "important", but they have editors, and they liked my story. They're affiliated with Fark.com, which been a huge part of my life for the last 23 years. The anthology has been released every few years.

I'll provide more details when the book is out. In the meantime, you can read We Taught Sand to Think early if you sign up. It's free! Even if you do, I hope you'll buy the book once it's released. All proceeds go to charity, and it will be filled with great stories from a wonderful group of authors.
