I got a note today from Andrea Kneeland of Hobart saying that one of my stories has been accepted for an upcoming issue. I’m always happy to place my work, but I’m especially excited about this opportunity. Hobart is a damned fine journal, and the story is something I’ve had in my files for a very long time. At one point, I was going to abandon the thing, but after I received some encouraging words from a respected mentor, I made some tweaks and put it out into the world. Starting over a year ago. “Slips,” the piece in question, has taken a long time to find a home, but I couldn’t be happier with where it landed. It should be on Hobart’s site some time in late summer/early fall.
