Great News

Okay, I have some great news as of a few weeks ago. When I entered my story in the international SF contest, I recieved a phone call saying that I had one the national portion of it. This was wonderful, but happened a while ago. Well, a few weeks ago, I get a check in the mail! I wasn't even aware there was a prize. And get this: the prize - is for 400 bucks. Yeah. Wow.
