It means I can still surprise people. :)

I was invited to write for an anthology called Hope and the story has to have a hopeful conclusion. That was hard, but I did it.

This morning I peeled open my copy of 100 Stories for Queensland. So far so good – 100 short sorted alphabetically by author (already passed ‘B’ – nice one! Although I think I’ve categorised you a bit because I was waiting for something horrible to happen to him). It’s a bit like someone pointing a muzzle-loaded blunderbus full of stories at you and pulling the trigger, because every one is different.

I figure if I knock that over this week I’ll be 3 months ahead in my short a day thing.
