My story “Thou Hast by Moonlight at Her Window Sung” is in the latest edition of SQ Mag<\/a>, from Australia.\u00c2\u00a0 They publish in a webzine format, with all the stories available to read for free online.\u00c2\u00a0 So check it out, and check out the other stories in the magazine!\u00c2\u00a0 I haven’t read them yet (it just came out today), but there’s a story by Mike Resnick, so it’s not all newbie authors (not that there’s anything wrong with that!).<\/p>\n
