Yeah but that's a little different. Elvis isn't dead.  ;)

My story was a Sherlock Holmes pastiche called "The Puzzle of Graceland Manor", where the Great Detective was called out of retirement to solve what really happened to Elvis. In 500 words or less. I got $50 for it.  :)

I sold a short story once featuring Elvis Presley, but it was printed in The International Journal of Elvisology and the Elvisian Era, put out by the local college and The First Coast Writer's Festival, so that probably doesn't count, since ALL of the stories featured Elvis.  :)

Sort of like that one SF anthology called Carmen Miranda's Ghost is Haunting Space Station 3. :D

It was printed back in 1994, and I'm not sure I still have a copy.  :(
