As promised, I’ve submitted one of the stories I used for my Clarion application to Weird Tales. I was so wound up about it, I forgot to attach it to the first email (though I did remember to paste the first four paragraphs into the body of that email, per the instructions at Ralan.com’s listing for the magazine), and had to send a second one, with an apology and an attachment. I can only hope Ann VanderMeer’s done something similar in her time…

Must be a Chicago thing…
April 2, 2008 by ChiaLynn
NovySan got the invite for his high school reunion yesterday. It’s at the Hilton, in a town near the one he grew up.
The invitation included a brief description of the event. There’ll be an open bar – four hours worth of an open bar. This is a good thing. And dancing, yes. We like dancing. And a buffet. That’s alright. Nothing wrong with a buffet. But what’s on the buffet, that’s the question. Well, it appears to be… Heavy hors d’oeuvres.
Heavy. Hors d’oeurves.
Heavy. Hors. D’oeurves.
Nope. Still can’t wrap my head around that.
I’ll plan to take a camera. And maybe a scale.
