Just a quick note to say that I heard back from Zooscape about “A Friend from the Deep.” Unfortunately they rejected the story, but the editor said she enjoyed reading it – just that it wasn’t what they were looking for. So that is promising! 🙂
While cruising through the Duotrope listings, looking for another place to submit it, I came across Asymmetry, a website that publishes new stories every week. I read a few of the stories there (notably “I Came From the Deep” and “In the Time of the Birds“) and loved them; after reading them, I decided to try submitting “A Friend from the Deep” to them. We’ll see how it goes this time. 🙂

Good luck, and I’m always happy to hear SOMETHING back on a submission, even if it’s a “no.”
lol same! It’s so much harder when you hear nothing back at all.
