Edmund Schubert, editor at Intergalactic Medicine Show (where my story “When I Kissed the Learned Astronomer” appears in the current issue) has just announced that IGMS is now officially considered a Professional Market by the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America (SFWA) retroactive to the first issue. This is good news for the magazine as well as for all of the writers including myself. It means that I can now join the SFWA as an associate member. I plan on doing this as soon as I get back to the U.S., in the meantime, I wanted to pass along the good news.
