Short Story: City of Gold.

[misslj_author]

My short story, City of Gold, which is a historical m/m romance set in Byzantium, has been accepted for the Dreamspinner Press anthology, A First Time For Everything. I am delighted to say the least, I have a lot of love for this piece (even if it's taken me a while to find a name for one of the two main characters!) and am currently in the research stages for a sequel which I hope to be of novel length, rather than a nap-size daydream line length. This is my happy face :D.

Now all I need to do in terms of not so fun research is figure out the tax thing. ATO, you are my only hope. /Star Wars. (And deal with blood tests and other tests this week, but those aren't related to writing and I'm trying not to dwell on them overly much.)

Congrats on the story sale! I'm even more excited to hear there is a longer sequel in the works. :-)

I third those congratulations and add that if you're making more than $2000 on the stories in the one financial year, you can divide the omoney over a five year period. Income averaging! I knew the term would come back to me eventually. Don't gorget to deduct costs of writing, like depreciaionon your computer, portions of ISP costs if you had to email the story etc etc.
