I sold a story to Longshot Island, but have no record of ever being paid. And to be honest, I have no memory of submitting the story. I may have been drunk.

Use caution when drinking and typing. Maybe the story is somewhere in Long Island, New York.
(just kidding)

Well, they definitely published it; I just don't recall submitting it.

Anyway, it's an interesting, eclectic magazine.

Drinking and submitting sounds a bit like drinking and dating, Manuel, you tend to forget what you've done :)
