Sara Ellis wants everyone to know : “I just wanted to say that my story “The Museum of Average Days” has been accepted to Shoreline of Infinity’s special climate change issue. It will be published under a different title, “If Cooler Heads”–I sort of scrapped the museum part thanks to some feedback. I wanted to say thanks as the feedback on this site was very helpful, and the Editors’ Choice review was a lovely vote of confidence that kept me going when I might have given up. ”

So, so happy to hear this Sara! Congratulations.

Bobby Harrell sold two stories! “This is older news to me, but I haven’t had a chance to update the Workshop yet. I sold “The Advantage is Decadent and Depraved” to defenestrationism.net  on June 14th, 2022 AND a story called Case Race on OWW and now called “Asleep at the Wheel on the Razorwave Grand Prix” will be published later this year in The Back Forty anthology!!!  I found out about the second sale on November 21st 2022.”

Double congratulations!

Ethan Sabatella has good news to share: “I wanted to reach out to announce that a story I had workshopped on OWW has sold. My story, entitled “The Abartachs’ Hostage” will be featured in DMR Books’ anthology Die By the Sword Volume 1, set to be published in May 2023.”
