Ask not for whom the deadline tolls, it tolls for, well, me.
Yes, this is pretty much it. DX has to be in NY on June 1, and I may have to mail it this weekend. I'm not quite sure how I'll get it overnighted. The new job is not exactly convenient for errand-running. Whatever. I'll figure it out.
It occurs to me, after an inquiry, that I may never have mentioned what DX stands for. I try not to use acronyms when referring to my titles, because when I read my own blog (error checking and all that), I scratch my head and wonder what the darn initials stand for. But in this case, the actual title of my contribution to the Crimson City Anthology
Shards of Crimson (that's the title I heard) is, in fact, DX. DX stands for-- hmm, should I say here, gee, you'll have to buy the book to find out? No, because the title is likely to be changed, and then you-all will never know. DX stands for
Demon of Unknown Origin. Get it? D (for demon) X (for unknown). Yeah, well, that's why it'll probably be changed. But right now, the title-in-fact of the story is DX.
That's it. Still decaf, still tired. Still have my new job. So far.
