Thank you for the kind words! They warm my little black heart. To reiterate what everyone else has said, WRITE WRITE WRITE and GET IT OUT THERE. Use a market search like Duotrope to find places to submit - there are a ton of small contests that are free to enter and some will even provide critique for the top ten entries.

I am in the esteemed Matthew Bennardo's One Sentence Story anthology found here http://thechairparade.bigcartel.com/product/16-single-sentence-stories and have a story coming out in a future issue of Stupefying Stories. I also have an incredible pile of rejection slips to peruse through although I wasn't as clever as Alexander to have one delivered during this. :) I try to keep updated at http://thekitastrophe.blogspot.com/

That's a perceptive question. Most of all I just wanted to tell a story, but I kept coming back to the idea that we as humans have this amazing ability/propensity to screw things up by our own hands. Rick has the person of his dreams and he can't leave well enough alone, and I think those parallels are easy to find in our own relationships. I can look at my own past and find plenty of those instances :)
