-1

I'm down one acceptance this year.

I woke this morning to find an email from an anthology editor. The complete manuscript was too long and the publisher suggested cutting three stories. One of them was mine.

Sigh.

Bummer, dude. But, it just means that one is now ready and willing for another place.

Anthologies can be tough. I just got a note that the editors are reopening an anthology because they didn't get enough variety of stories, so now I wait.
