New Story "Regrets" at 200 CCs

My flash fiction story "Regrets" came out today at 200 CCs.

This story is a great example of finding the right market for a piece.  I had this great idea for a tiny story, but when I wrote it, it turned out to be 200 words, which was 100 words too many for a drabble.  Most places that accept short-shorts have very firm word counts.  And most places looking for flash fiction - stories up to 1000 words - prefer to have the longer spectrum of flash fiction rather than the shorter.  So I held onto this story, thinking it might never be published, but hoping I could find just the right place for it because I really liked it.  Then along came Mr. Hamilton's new magazine, which was looking for 200-word stories!  He is publishing (and has published - just look through the archives!) some brilliant stories in that in-between length that are hard to find.

So I hope you enjoy reading "Regrets" as much as I enjoyed writing it.  :)
