I got a new offer to publish my short story “Aquarius.”<\/p>\n
I wrote the story in 2015<\/a>. It was previously accepted by Aurelius Leo<\/a> but the publisher’s plans fell through<\/a>.

I submitted it to an anthology project that’s specifically for aromantic main characters, though I wasn’t explicitly looking for anything like that. And this time, it found what I hope is its permanent home.<\/p>\n The Common Bonds anthology project has accepted “Aquarius” and plans to put the story in its Volume 3 anthology. (It will be a while since Volume 2 isn’t even out.)
