It’s finally up!

My story, The The Bunyip Of Boobera, is now up and official over at Mystic Moon Press!
Here it is. Clicky clicky!

I’ve got an excerpt still here on RB, as I’d added it here for a brief visit originally. I’d had the story rejected for publication by ASIM (maaaybe aimed too high for a first outing…), so asked Kate for some editing help (thanks again!), and also got feedback from a few other folk too.

The new shiny version went on to win the eBook competition in the WMG, organised by Ronnie, and judged by Mystic Moon Press, giving me an open door to publication!

Now it’s out there on its own, and I can’t keep going over and over it and never letting go, as I can tend to do… nothing ever feels finished enough… which leads to nothing going anywhere. So 2008 has been my year of letting go. :)

Bravo Damian good for you mate ;)
I did however check out ‘Moon Press’
and read their list of things you can’t write about,
after all their preclusions; I wonder if there’s anything left to submit (lol)

M
Damian:

Cheers Max! LOL, yep, a few things on their list of prohibited topics, but it’s not too bad really. Just a few taboos they’re avoiding :)

Fantastic news! Congrats!

I was wondering how long before you got published. You’re way too talented to never publish.
PERIOD!

Thanks Gypsy :)

Good to see it finally finally in print, isn’t it? And you’d be happy with it being on their homepage too.
Another step on the path. Keep on going.
Damian:

Yep, so good to finally see it out! And I hadn’t actually checked their homepage, thanks for mentioning it, LOL!
Mister Mxyplyzyk

Man, that comp seemed a hundred years ago.
Congrats. Damian.
(it should have been me) :)
Damian:

Feels like it could’ve been even longer than that!
LOL, thanks! It probably nearly was you anyway :)
dirtman

Damian:

Thanks DM, I couldn’t stop now :)
Empress

much snickering.
Damian:

LOL, snicker away Miss Helpful :)
If I was organised like you I’d have had another in the pipeline while waiting. But of course I’m not :)
Max Gatrell

To be honest i’d never before considered writing about "golden showers and Necrophilia’ until I read their list…I wonder if they could be combined.

M

P.S. and then submitted (lol)
Damian:

LOL, you may not believe it, but I was literally holding a book that used necrophilia as a theme as I read your comment (We So Seldom Look On Love). Haven’t used it as a theme myself though :)
Max Gatrell

How’s that for synchronicity!
I doubt i’ll be using those subjects either (lol)

@ Danny… Well there’s something in the wind for you still :0)
I’m so proud that this has finally come to fruition. You’re right Danny about the “ages ago” bit. I had almost forgot this had happen. WMG’s first writing challenge.

Well, I’m on my way now to take a squiz…
Damian:

Hey Ronnie, definately seems ages ago now! It was such a great idea for a writing challenge.
gypsycaster

And we, your loyal minions, shall gobble them up!
(wait, is that minions? or onions???)
Damian:

LOL, either way’s interesting!!!
Empress

love to Sama…
Damian:
