I've Sold My First Short Story

[horrorfan]

My dream of someday being published is going to come true. I have sold my first short story to Dead Letter Press. It is going to be the chap book that people get for free if they pre-order the anthology, Bound For Evil.
Here are the details:

The 16-page chapbook is titled "The Collective of Blaque Reach" by Matt
Cowan, with cover art by Allen Koszowski; and is being offered as a premium to anyone who orders BOUND FOR EVIL directly from the publisher,
Dead Letter Press:

This chapbook is limited to the number of orders received by the
publisher, plus a few extra copies for contractual purposes. Limitation is
expected to be 200 copies or fewer.

I didn't quite make it into the main book but I am very excited and am looking forward to seeing it in print.

Thanks to both of you. I'm very excited since its my first sale. Hopefully I'll eventually get some more sales down the road. BTW, Tom English of Dead Letter Press is a super nice guy and great to work with/for. He is an editor that is very helpful and encouraging.

You can now see what the cover of the chap book that my short story, "The Collective of Blaque Reach" will look like if you follow the link below. It looks very cool and fits my story well. The cover art was created by Allen Koszowski, and it looks terrific. It sounds like Bound For Evil and my story should be shipping by Tuesday. I can't wait to check them both out. Working with Tom English of Dead Letter Press has been great. You couldn't ask for a more nice, helpful editor.
