Congratulations Martin, very inspiring.
Just read the background for the story on your blog.
It appears to have been an enjoyable process from start to finish.

OK, when I was cleared to go public with this news, I thought about Facebook. I thought about my blog.
But first, first, first, I thought about all my friends here, because you've been cheering me on since the beginning. So you're the ones I'm telling first. (Well, almost first. Hi, Tina!)
Gardner Dozois wants "Murder on the Aldrin Express" for Year's Best Science Fiction Vol. 31.
I'm stunned. I can't sleep. I keep going back to the email to make sure it's real.
Thank you all for the encouragement. It really made a difference!
(I just checked my email. It's still there... )
Grats Martin! I love that story. You did a fantastic job with it. I'm not surprised it made it to the year's best.

Congratulations, Stewart.
I too have good news: I just sold 2 more stories!
My seventh story (for children) was accepted by Cast of Wonders. Writing for kids was a new challenge, and not as easy as I thought it would be.
And I found out today that my eighth story was accepted by Perihelion. This was my first submission to them too, so this bodes well.

And no, this isn't an excuse for more images of dancing rodents. Don't forget I share my abode with a crazy alligator and she's asleep right now, let sleeping gators lie and all that.
