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.

Congrats, Dude!

For the wrist, head to the local health food store (or Whole Foods) and purchase arnica tablets (Scientific name: Arnica montana) and arnica ointment. Use both. The sooner you start using arnic, the more effective it is. It causes ultra rapid healing. I know this by both experience and research.

It's good for bruising, spraining, tearing, breaking, and sore muscles, so it's good to keep on hand.

Better. I was a simple sprain and healed pretty quickly. Thanks for the tip, btw!
