Yes, I am back again, so soon. Two days in a row of using this as a crutch to get me going. I did have a very productive day yesterday, though, after I wrote my last post. I punched up a few things and I submitted three different stories to two different places (Shock Totem …

And Another Month Goes By.
So now it's been another month since my last post, which was about how I hadn't posted in four months. I think it was about some other stuff, too, but it was so boring I stopped caring. So today, I'm at Steap and Grind in Fishtown, and I just sat down with my blueberry crumble …
Bye Bye, DarkFuse. Etc.
So DarkFuse filed Chapter 11, as many already know. I thought about going on PACER and looking at the stuff (I'm a lawyer, I have access to so much) but I kind of don't want to feel sad about it, so I've refrained. In other news, I'm working on a story and I also don't …
Long Time, No See. You’ve Changed So Much. Here’s What Happened…
So I haven't written anything in a while; there are several reasons for that. 1) I've actually been traveling and doing stuff, which is weird for me; 2) I have a job, losers; and 3) I'm lazy. So far I've just been rejected across the board, although Pseudopod sent me a personal rejection and told …

Many and Varied Obsession #472: Checking Statuses of Things
So I've written previously about how I have a couple of stories being held for consideration, one by Apex Magazine (which is fucking crazy) and one by Pseudopod (which is only a little less crazy). Since learning this information, I've been obsessed with finding out whether I will be rejected at the next stage. Pseudopod …

Held for Consideration. Lingo!
So a month or two ago, I made submissions to Apex Magazine and Pseudopod (that one is a reprint; you can find it linked here). Since then, I've been advised that the initial readers liked the stories, and so they're moving up the chain. I almost didn't post about it here, because I didn't want …
I Didn’t Want You Anyway. Also, Bullet Journals (Mullet Journals?).
So a few new but uninteresting-to-anyone-but-me things happened this week. I got rejected by The Dark. Not THE DARK, as in the breathing black space that haunts closets everywhere, but the horror magazine. Rejection Game Strong thus far. Still waiting for DarkFuse, Pseudopod and Apex to tell me to fuck off. I have two weeks' …

Rejectathon, Commence. Also, Submission Grinder.
So I polished some things up and sent them out. I look forward to either 1) boilerplate rejections, 2) personalized rejections, or 3) acceptances. #1 would surprise me the least; #2 would probably make me feel the worst; and #3 is unlikely. All the same. I kind of wish personalized rejections were less professional. They …
