Weirder Tale

After sending in a postal submission of my first short story to Weird Tales back in April, I finally heard back from them today--sort of.

My returned SASE and manuscript were accompanied by a form letter explaining that the magazine has changed hands again, and submissions are closed pending the installation of a new editor-in-chief.

They didn't read my story, but this isn't quite a non-response. I'll figure out how to categorize this business over at Duotrope.

The best part is that I'm finally free to resubmit my first story (the second one has already been out three times). It's gonna need a lot of work, so I plan to wait until Nick's novel push initiative is over before diving into short story revisions.

As always, I'll keep you posted.
