Managed over the weekend to put the finishing touches on a short story that had been languishing while Kevin and I finished the first draft of Distant Early Warning, and I put it in the mail this morning. It's now on its way to the editor of the open call anthology I decided to try. While the story's not typically something I'd write, I'd gotten a kick (and a few belly laughs) out of the previous anthologies in this series. I probably won't know anything about the editor's decisions until summer at the earliest, but at least I can cross the story off my "To Do List."

Currently, I'm working with Kevin to complete the latest round of revisions on Summon the Thunder, which are due on the 30th. After that, we get started on our installment of Mere Anarchy, the six-part e-Book series that will be part of Pocket's 2006 celebration of the original Star Trek series' 40th anniversary.

Kick ass.

And while I'm working on that, I hope to write two more short stories and an article for a local magazine.
