A drowned man's garment from the sea

My story "The Depth Oracle," originally published in Sirenia Digest #8, has been chosen for reprint in Paula Guran's Best New Romantic Fantasy (née Best New Paranormal Romance). [livejournal.com profile] greygirlbeast, I blame you for this.

Stay—stay—
but terror has caught us now,
we passed the men in ships,
we dared deeper than the fisher-folk
and you strike us with terror
O bright shaft.

—H.D., "The Shrine"

*crawls along to die in a friend's LJ*

You had better come to visit. I need someone who can shelf the books.

By which I mean "Congratulations!"

Are you mainstream now?

Congratulations! How am I going to collect all these stories, Sonya!

And thanks for the H.D.--I should make it a point to read any little excerpt of hers each morning. It's like reading your work--everything wakens and I want, I want, I want.

Congratulations!

And, hi! I've read a small handful of your stories and poems here and there, and liked them enough that I'm waiting on amazon.co.uk (my favourite addiction) to bring me Singing Innocence and Experience. From what I've read of you so far, you definitely deserve this reprint. :)
