The Daily Grind Table of Contents      So far, this story seems nearly as long as the average medical internship, so I think maybe we're all doctors now!

The Terebinth Story Archive      I've often said that my goal in life is to become the perfect assitant. The hardest part, though, is finding anyone who'll let me help them after they get a look at what I can do!

This won't be:      Available for a couple months yet, but I've got another short story schedule to appear in an upcoming magazine.      The magazine is Space & Time #146, and since it'll be their Spring/Summer issue, I wouldn't expect to see it while the sleet and snow are still falling here and there around the northern hemisphere. Maybe closer to June or something?      These are the same folks who published a sonnet of mine in their issue #145 late last year. I actually sent them the short story at the same time as the sonnet, thinking I'd have a better chance of getting in if I covered as many bases as I could manage. The editor ended up liking them both, so she decided to space them out a bit, one per issue. Wouldn't wanna overwhelm anyone, after all...      The story's called "The Ring of Destiny," and it's all about the vital importance of being genre savvy . It's also got more talking animal characters than it&

The Daily Grind Table of Contents      Whoosh! After all that leaping yesterday, I'm exhausted! Still, it's nice to know that Malvolio is a Dot Warner fan, I guess...
