I suppose that I should be reporting that we made it safely to Chattanooga, which we did.
However.
This email was much more exciting.
I’m contacting you to inform you that Rich Horton has selected one of your stories, “For Solo Cello, Op. 12,” for Science Fiction: The Best of the Year, scheduled for February release.
