Fancy That

I'm getting another short story published! My story Misunderstood will appear in the October 2010 issue of Beyond Centauri, a magazine for younger readers. It's a small magazine, but I thought it seemed like a good fit for the story, and I'm quite pleased. (Beyond Centauri is a paying market, if kind of a nominal one.)

The story is soft sci-fi, written from a prompt in my Advanced Fiction class at W&M. It's about a teenaged girl whose large-scale habitation ship gets humankind's first message from aliens, then has to try to figure out what it means.

So, huzzah!
