Autumn O’ Rejections can take a hike, because my story “8-Bit Procrastination” just got accepted by Every Day Fiction. This was one of my April Fool Challenge stories, and I think it’s the first one I’ve sold. So yay!

Sorry to contact you this way, but I couldn’t find a contact link.
Congrats on your upcoming publication at Every Day Fiction. As the editor of Every Day Fiction’s blog, Flash Fiction Chronicles, I would like to invite you to consider contributing a blog post in the near future. If you don’t know about our site, here’s the 411.
Our goal is to help in the growth of quality flash fiction for writers and readers online and in print. This site is dedicated to the discussion of the art and craft of flash fiction, fiction in general, and the issues of writing, marketing, and publishing today.
If you would like to contribute, contact me by return email or at flashfictionblog@everydayfiction.com to let me know you are interested. It is preferable that you send either a query as to what you are going to write about and/or the actual post.
Once I sees that what you have is within the parameters (non-fiction article about writing, the craft of writing, the experience of writing, publishing, marketing), I will send you letter regarding the process of posting here at EDF’s Flash Fiction Chronicles.
