News X2

The Good News: I have sold my 4800 word Space Opera Pirate story, "Tenari," to Ray Gun Revival for their second anniversary issue.

The Bad News: I sprained my left wrist in a fall about 10 minutes ago. It hurts like hell and I'm typing this one-handed with my right (and off) hand. It isn't swollen, but it hurts if I move it much. I'm going to go wrap it in an Ace Bandage and see what happens.

Yay!

BOOOOOOO!

Even if it's not swollen, you might want to try Advil and ice; my understanding is that sprains are a lot of internal inflammation and icing even the ones that are not obviously swelling can help you recover faster if you get it within a few hours of the injury. Yikes!

Thanks for the congrats!

Yeah, that what [livejournal.com profile] careswen said when I told her. I have iced and taken ibuprofen.
