Published
On January 1st, 2006, I said that my goal that year was to be published. One of the things you have to realize is that the pace of the publishing industry is slow... so I didn't have anything in print last year. However, I do have something in print now.

Lyn Perry has published a short story anthology on Lulu, with 24 speculative fiction stories with a spiritual theme. This, of course, is part of the Residential Aliens project, a speculative fiction e-zine which is humming along nicely. Lulu is, of course, a self publishing press, but as Dave Gudeman says:
It's in a self-published book, but I didn't publish it myself; Lyn Perry at Residential Aliens did. So technically, Lyn published me meaning that I've been published rather than I published myself. The difference is critical.

And yes, Dave has his own story in the book, the brilliant "Transcendence." Also included is Curtis Schweitzer's "Colossus." All three of these stories have appeared in the Storyblogging Carnival. So if you'd like to own an anthology with a lot of stories with spiritual significance, be sure to buy a copy. You can go straight to Lyn's Storefront.
