The money is nice, especially once you get used to being paid for

the writing, but even better is the affirmation. I hope your medic can adjust the treatments to your benefit.

Re: TAPS

Thank you. It's always nice to get paid for something you love to do. I remember my first check for a short story I sent to the old (and I think now gone) "Boys Life." I got $15 and I thought I was a millionaire! 

It's nice to get the money, but I would write for nothing to no one because it makes me happy.

Congratulations on the Vella and especially this new one.  It is always so fun to be paid for what one writes.  I'll never forget my first--I sent three poems I wrote to a magazine and got paid $20 each for two of them.  That was a long, long time ago.
