"A Very, Wary Christmas" off to F&SF

One 3,000 word story (shortest ever written) off to Gordon Van Gelder at F&SF. It's a light fantasy with humor, and I hope he enjoys it. Not a lot of markets for short humorous fantasy. If I can't sell it to a major market, it might go straight to Book View Cafe. Humor is usually forgotten when awards come due, and I need money more than ego-boo.

It has humor, Christmas, a haunted dollhouse, a 50's Elvis collector figurine, and a yeti. What's not to like?

Special thanks to [livejournal.com profile] incandragon for pointing me toward a title!

I hope he picks it up. Humor is a tough sell. Which is probably part of why I don't sell more than I do. XD
