I got an honorable mention!!!! A tiny bit of needed validation!!! Followed the advice in a personal rejection from Daily Science Fiction.

Dear 4th quarter contestant,

Congratulations, your story has received an Honorable Mention for the 4th quarter. We are not done with judging for the quarter so if you have friends that also entered and they haven't heard yet, realize this is just the first wave of notices.

I will send you a certificate but need, in response your name and current address and the name of the story. They will not be mailed until the new year but I would like to know right away if you would like a certificate.

Congrats again and happy holidays!!! If you have not submitted for quarter 1 of the new year, please do so.

Best,

Joni Labaqui

Rejection. Not surprised, it was a very minor revision of a previous rejection. Now, it's off to a new market.

Semi-Finalist.

Bittersweet feeling. It's nice to know I got that far, it's hard to know that I got that close. On to the next quarter.
