I learned today that my story, "The Old Man" is being purchased for publication by Daily Science Fiction..

This is turning into a pretty good month. :)

My favorite part was the part where he played knick-knack on my sticks.

Thanks, all. BTW, I change the title slightly from "The Old Man" to "Her Old Man." Fits much better.

congrats.
are they a new market?
do they take fantasy, or just sf?

Re: Short fiction sale: "The Old Man."

They've been around maybe six months, putting out a story every weekday. Much of it is flash fiction, though they do publish at all lengths (their Friday story is usually longer). Subscribers get an e-mail; the stories are on their web page about a week later.
