Issue 6 of GUD, containing my story "The Naming Braid," is now out! Check it out over at: http://www.gudmagazine.com/.
This story really had a charmed life. GUD was the first place I submitted it. It was also the first story I'd ever sent to GUD. They came back with a comment about having trouble with the transitions. Interestingly, I'd had this story critiqued, and my reviewers mentioned it, but they were split fifty-fifty as to whether I should use scene-breaks or not. Apparently the people who said "use scene-breaks" were right. ;-) I sent back a revised version and ... boom. Contract.
Even if you don't want to spring for the purchase price, the first three paragraphs of the story are up as a teaser ...
About Me
- Lindsey Duncan
- I'm a professional harp performer, chef / pastry chef, and speculative fiction writer from Cincinnati, Ohio. My contemporary fantasy novel Flow is available from Double Dragon Publishing, and my science fiction novel Scylla and Charybdis is now out from Grimbold Books. I've also sold a number of short stories and a few pieces of speculative poetry. I write predominantly fantasy, usually epic and/or humorous, with some soft science fiction. I play the traditional lever harp with a specialty in Celtic music - but I also perform modern and Renaissance tunes. And yes, you read that right - I have a diploma in Baking and Pastry and an Associates in Culinary Arts and am currently working in the catering field at Kate's Catering and Personal Chef Services (Dayton, KY). I am a CPC (Certified Pastry Culinarian) and CSW (Certified Specialist of Wine).

And really, how could you possibly go wrong getting the piece alone for $0.50...but then a whole issue (digital) is just $3.50....
I love this story =)

Thanks so much!
And I am an idiot and missed the fact that you could buy individual pieces. Even if it makes more sense to buy the whole issue. :-)
We have a lot going on, and we're not the best at putting it all forward at once (also maybe just too much going on). For instance, our "buy one get one" share-an-issue-with-a-friend offers, and (and [and] ) .... :heh: We _WILL_ take over the world. Somehow.
