It was a good year for getting published. I'm starting to crack some better-known magazine nuts. The best known of them is probably Bards & Sages Quarterly, which published my killer spacesuit micro-story "Fifty Percent of Smartsuits Fit You Perfectly" in their October 2020 issue.
Fairly new, but highly praised Speculative North published my little three-verse lament on light pollution called "Star Trip(tych)" in their second issue, in August. The issue was reviewed in Amazing Stories, by CSFFA hall-of-famer R Graeme Cameron. You can find the review here. He even had a word or two to say about my poem. **blush** I'm glad he got the point of it.
Hirareth Publishing printed two of my poems, "Age of Oceans" and "Marital Bliss: Robot Reboot" in the Summer 2020 issue of Illumen magazine; and another poem, "Fairy Wine," a creepy sonnet, in their June 2020 magazine The Fifth Di...Their editor, Tyree Campbell, was the first to ever accept one of my poems for print publication back in 2011.
Lastly, my short 300-word micro-story A Little Sunshine and a Breath of Fresh Air was published in Queer Sci-Fi's annual micro fiction contest anthology Innovation in August 2020.
After a few years of fits and starts, mostly fits, I'm starting to get published at a better rate, and getting noticed by more notable magazines and publishers. I hope this is a good sign of things to come in 2021 and beyond.

And I received an acceptance for this anthology, where 3 of my poems will appear. "Red," "under the robotic umbrella in the rain," and "Musical Thought Drones Are Here to Assassinate You Again Today" will be published in Lyric, a poetry anthology by Djinn Press, a Pakistani publisher.
I've much to be hopeful for in the coming year.
