This is the title of my most recent short story sold for Everyday Weirdness. It´s a semi-autobiographical piece, and it was published on my birthday (May 16th), so I couldn´t announce it here then. I was celebrating with my wife and parents in Rio, and when I got back to São Paulo I simply found out we were without Web (two and a half days without Internet - a major backbone problem here).
So now you have it here. I want to thank Liviu, Cindy, Jacques, and David, my co-editors and friends from Fantasy Book Critic, who have been very supportive of me and my fiction. I also want to thank Nathan Lilly, Ron Warren, Mihir Wanchoo, Jeff Carlson, Mihai "Dark Wolf" Adascalitei, Larry Nolen, Jetse de Vries, Jeffrey Thomas, and Jeff Vandermeer, for the incentive. Thank you very much, guys.
I did not know how else to contact you, so I am leaving a comment here. This is what I posted today on Twitter:
"Anyone read the fiction of Brazilian author Fábio Fernandes? I've read 3 flash pieces of his from @everydayWeird and love each one."
I wanted to say thank you, and I look forward to more of your fiction, especially the W.I.P. novel. Sometimes, reading one of your pieces in the morning is a great catalyst for a productive day of writing for me.

Very cool, Fábio! Sorry that I haven't been around that much these past few weeks, but outside of two days of cleanup Tuesday and Wednesday, I'm done with my current job (and start the next a day or so afterward), so I should be able to comment more often.
Will read that story later today, after I return from Nashville.
