Hello, reading friends. I have a new story out in Epiphany, Issue 36. It's called "Nereid," and they nominated it for the O. Henry Prize. That stuff never happens to me! Very excited.

Many congratulations Nate West! Must read this!
It is a very good story. Stunningly good! Likely a shoe-in for the prize.
That is high praise! Thank you, S̶e̶a̶n̶. Let's hope! It usually goes to much bigger fish. Mainly, it was such a boost to have the editors at Epiphany put such support behind it.
If you win, I think you should give a Bernhard-esque 'acceptance' speech.
Hahaha. It'd be a wasted opportunity if I didn't.

Wow! Congratulations Nate! Will check out ASAP. (I note that there's a story in the same issue called "House Bunnies".) I assume "Kate Durbin" is not your pseudonym?
Haha. Unfortunately she beat me to it.Thanks, Bill!
