Orson!

Orson Scott Card, you will learn to love me. I just submitted "Oumings in the Dark" to Orson Scott Card's magazine of short fiction, The Intergalactic Medicine Show. I have previously submitted a story to them, and they did not accept it (it was "Stick Boys," actually). But one of these days, they must accept me. We'll see if they like a touching story about dirty little creatures living in a barn, waiting to be sent to the rendering plant. Lisa didn't hate it, so bear that in mind, Orson. She didn't hate it!
