Edit: I have just submitted Human and now I will have to wait at least three weeks for their answer. It will be a time of daydreaming and then reminding myself that the odds are against me.
Well, the answer came from Daily Science Fiction, and it was no, they decided not to publish Viruskiller. But that's all right, because I've written another story that I will submit to them. It's called Human, and is a flash fiction of just under 1000 words. It says on the DSF site that they're more likely to publish the very short stories, so I think I might have a better chance with this one. And if not, well, good experience and all that.

Oh, sorry! Rejections always suck. But good for you for sending something else out right away. You can do it! Don't ever give up. It took me nine YEARS of submitting before I got a short story published.
