It probably doesn't mean anything...

But The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction, which usually only takes ten days to get a rejection back from, held onto "Blood and Ink" for more than a month. And the rejection is from Mr. Gordon Van Gelder, not the Slush God.

Yes, it probably means nothing. Still, I like that feeling like maybe, just maybe, I got a little closer. And now I have a story free for this quarter's Writers of the Future (I was beginning to think I'd have to give it a miss; I don't feel short story brilliance in me at the moment, plus the deadline falls before my self-imposed novel deadline).
