Steve Jackson Games has rejected Outrim Void. They're buying out my contract. This I didn't need this week.

I'm getting about $160 in the buyout, but the payments were supposed to be my Oregon money! Damnit, I need that vacation! At this point I'm wondering if Ground Forces was a bloody fluke, that the only reason it was any good was the fact it was a subject that I knew intimately.

At this point I'm not sure if I can write anything else, and I like writing! What the hell do I do now?

Your brother has a point, angel. Correct me if I'm wrong, but is this not your first actual rejection? Yeah, you had things accepted that were never published - but they were still accepted. Remember to celebrate that even as you mourn this particular setback.

I'm sorry it happened - and especially sorry that it happened now. But don't let it defeat you. *hugs*
