I wrote a story about ten years ago, when my wife and I were desperately trying to have a child together. It felt magical, and I put it in a drawer and forgot about it until recently. The twins we made together that spring will be ten just after Christmas this year. I guess that's how magic works. I think it is amazing that almost exactly ten years later I pulled the story out, did a pretty dramatic revision of it, and sent it out. Now, it will be in Pandora's Imagination's Summer Time Magic Anthology. I am very happy. The story takes place in the same town as "The Dragon Wager" which has been published earlier this year in Kings of the Realm: A Dragon Anthology. My epic fantasy novel also takes place here. I think this is a sign. I better get editing/revising, soon. Well, until then, I'm off to the Magical Kingdom with my little miracles, my niece and my soul mate. A wonderful, wonderful thought.
Go well, and stay well,
Trav
