New fantasy anthology market

"Beneath a Violet Moon": ebook sword and sorcery anthology.
Guidelines here. Deadline is April 25. They say they share the larger portion of payments with authors; depending on how well the anthology is promoted and sells, this could be a good thing or a not so good thing. Either way, an interesting experiment. I don't know these folks personally, so use your own judgment.

This is making the rounds, too good not to pass on.

OMG Breaking News...

I've just been accepted to attend Launch Pad 2011, a week-long astronomy workshop for science fiction writers. It's funded by NASA and will be held this July in Laramie Wyoming. The guest instructor is Stanley Schmidt, editor of Analog. Other lecturers include University of Wyoming professors Michael S. Brotherton PhD and Jim Verley, PhD.

I am so incredibly stoked!
