Finally..ist!

I'm a finalist in Opium Magazine's Shya Scanlon Seven-Line* Short Story Contest! They've whitled it down from over 120 entries to 13 of us, listed here. The winner(s?) will be announced February 26. Worse case scenario, I've got another online publication credit to my name. Best case, I win $1,000 and get printed on actual paper!!!
I've had a good couple of months writing-wise (see links to recent pubs on my sidebar). Not trying to brag or nothin, just happy (and relieved) that after more than 20 years of honing my writing, I can finally give it away for free!

Ah, shit.

*note: not 7 sentences, 7 lines. kinda tricky making it come out "write." ellohell!
