Whoops! My story was one of those rejected what got you into the last leg of the first leg! Happy to be of...uhm...service. Thanks for reading my little diddy and giving it a chance, Kim! Good luck now on wrangling this anthology into final form, and on your own "Valley" submission, too! --Dave B.
Suspense is killing me slowly but I submitted close to deadline and figure they're being read in order recieved. I can imagine that reading 250+ zombie stories while finishing your own could be tedious after a while.
Thanks for understanding! If I were younger and stronger, perhaps I'd go on a marathon of reading 20 in a row, but if I tried that now, I'd just read the first paragraph of each one and make a snap decision. I have read everyone through to the end so far.
Location: Cornwall on Hudson, New York, United States
I am a professor of religious studies, and the author of several books on the Bible and theology. I grew up in New York, Virginia, and New Mexico. I attended St. John's College, Annapolis, MD (BA, 1988), Harvard Divinity School (MTS, 1990), and the University of Notre Dame (PhD, 1995). I live in upstate New York with my wife and two wonderful kids.
Starting in 2006, I had one of those strange midlife things, and turned my analysis towards horror films and literature. I have written
Gospel of the Living Dead: George Romero's Visions of Hell on Earth (Baylor, 2006) - WINNER, 2006 Bram Stoker Award;
Dying to Live: A Novel of Life among the Undead (Permuted Press, 2007);
Orpheus and the Pearl(Magus Press, 2008); and
Dying to Live: Life Sentence(Permuted Press, 2008).

Woo Hoo! You've wrangled it down into double digits!
That was my reaction! It seems like so much less, once it drops below one hundred!

Getting there! Woo!
I hope it's not by order of submission. I sent mine in on the 3rd of the month and haven't heard either way...
It is by order of submission and I'm way past the third.
Yikes. So does that mean it never arrived?
Should I just go sell it?
Go to your "sent" mail file and hit "forward" on the message sent on the 3rd and it'll go in the queue. Thanks
Sent!
Thank you.
