Well, good news in the Webb household as I celebrate my first short story sale for actual money.\u00a0Wefting the Warp\u00a0<\/em>is a 4,300 word science fiction story and has been bought by\u00a0Robot and Raygun<\/a>,\u00a0<\/em>a new UK based online and print magazine. From their blurb:<\/p>\n

Robot and Raygun features all kinds of science fiction, from post apocalyptic worlds to starships travelling through the voids of space and all that lies between.\u00a0 It is our aim to help fire your imagination and to envision the many futures that lay before us.<\/p>\n

Each issue is made up of a selection of short stories to help you discover great new writers of science fiction.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

R&R put out their first edition in March 2014, and my story appears in Issue 2, April 2014<\/a> which has just been released.<\/p>\n

It is a great feeling to have someone like your work enough to pay for it. This is also my first short story length piece to be published (previous publications have been flash fiction).<\/p>\n

As always, my bibliography page<\/a> has details on where you can find all my published work.<\/p>\n

Several people have given editorial feedback on the story, and to them I’d like to offer my sincerest thanks. The story wouldn’t have made it without you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
