Last Week’s Goals All my posts went up as expected. Two submissions came back to roost, and I am currently unable to find a market for them, or the one that’s been sitting on the shelf from the week before. I wrote on six days, and made my daily quota on three of them. I … Continue reading

Last Week’s Goals All my posts went up as expected. One submission returned, but I’ve been unable to find market for it yet.

Writing Wednesday: How My Works in Progress are Progressing
Last Week’s Goals All my blog posts published on schedule. I had four stories return from markets, and instead of waiting until Monday (as I’ve done for the last couple of years) to send them to new potential publishers, I sent them back out immediately. I don’t believe this would have been practical or as … Continue reading
Writing Wednesday: Working in Two Different Universes
Last Week’s Goals All blog entries posted on schedule. Seven stories returned from market, and all were sent back out.
