What now???

The payment that is due for the story that I sold last week - payment on acceptance so hopefully it should come through soon paid for Number 2 son's birthday presents and the family celebration meal out (including drinks) which was great - as long as it does come through soon. You may remember that the payment before that bought the road tax with a pound to spare. Well I've just heard that a story that I sold a couple of months ago is going to be published in July so I can expect payment at the end of that month. Can't help but wonder what's going to need paying for then.
Actually, last night when we were all sat around the table having a good time and Number 2 son was openeing his presents it was very satisfying to know that my writing efforts had been worth it.

It is lovely. Our upstairs carpet was bought with the proceeds of a story, which is extremely dull but very satisfying at the same time :o) Hope you get paid soon - I've found the cheques can come in nearly two months after publication.

Thanks Fia, Georgiana is adorable isn't she. She was a gift from Annie Wickings.
Captain you say the nicest things.
You're right Karen about the satisfaction. I think I'll be okay about getting paid because they use paypal and I've not had a problem before.
