disasters to hit ideomancer

So a few Wiscons ago, I started toying with the idea of writing a collborative fictional thingie using a wiki. Eventually I conned a set of excellent and wonderful folks -- Greg van Eekhout, Christopher Barzak, Elad Haber, Meghan McCarron, Tim Pratt, and Kiini Ibura Salaam -- into scribbling up a set of stories on an oddmuse wiki I threw together. Actually, thinking about it, it was me, Chris, Kiini, and Greg (with some brainstormy advice from Kelly Link), and then we stalled out sometime in 2004 and, after six months of thrashing and inattention, decided to get some fresh blood, whereupon we were reinvigorated by Meghan, Tim, and Elad....

Anyway, the result of all this highly entertaining thrashing was, as I recently learned, bought by Ideomancer and will constitute the entirety of an upcoming issue.

It's called "twenty-three small disasters".

Whee!
