Well, Scandinavian anyway! Lovely agent lady has sold my first story (not the one with the unreliable narrator problem) to mags in Norway and Sweden.

I'd like to thank my stylist, my personal trainer, my aqupuncturist ...

Seriously, I would like to thank Karen Milner for her very useful off-site crit which helped me polish the piece.

Apparently the Norwegian editor is keen to see more of my work which is encouraging. What I hope to break into is the serials of sixty to seventy thousand words which gives more scope, and of course more money!

I feel at least five feet six tall today. Lol

I've always found Scandinavians to be most open minded, appreciative and welcoming of the arts. Well done you.

Good for you, Temperance. So who did you say the agent lady was, again? (A contact number would be handy, too.)

Congrats Tempy. The first time I saw your avatar I knew that you were ideally suited to the Scandinavian market!
Seriously, though, brilliant!

Back to my roots.

That's great news, Tempy! And once you've got your foot in the door . . .

As for your unreliable narrator one, it will probably suit a different market, so don't give up on it.
