I just got home from work, checked my email, and... Lycanthropes is published. It's in print. It should be available for buying in the next few days. In case you don't know why I am excited, this is the anthology that has my short story "Banana Moon" in it. I will provide a link when I have one.
I AM IN PRINT! It's official. Now to get the last legs of the novel done. But... yay! This has been a good week, with one exception that turned out ok anyhow. I'm starting to believe now. I am a published writer. This is real. It'll be more real when I am holding a copy of the book in my hands though.
