In July, 2019, I had a short story published in Crimson Streets, a magazine specializing in hard core pulp-style crime fiction, preferably from the 1920s through 1950s. Sadly, the magazine went out of business last years, but thanks to the miracle of the clouds, the stories live forever. Crimson Streets asked only that authors refrain from publishing elsewhere for a years,and the authors kept all their rights. I posted this on my blog, where it became a favorited, and then on LinkedIn, where it did even better. I hope you will also like it.
