wordage, rejections
May. 31st, 2006 10:01 pm2000 words on the con report today, and the draft is now up. I was hoping to get a little fiction writing in, butI haven't quite escaped the last of the migraine yet - I had to leave the pub very early tonight because the noise was getting to me, and I'm now feeling sufficiently fuzzy that I'm going to go to bed.
The new keyboard seems to be working, but one minor irritation has emerged on the computer move, in that somehow a lot of the settings in my mail client for "indicate when this folder has received new mail" have got turned off. Hence some email into my "talking to publishers" address over the weekend that I didn't notice until I went into it looking for some email from last week. Rejections today from Best Gay Erotica 2005 (Ye Ed says over 500 submissions - yikes!) and Iris. Some helpful feedback on the Iris rejection, which I'm grateful for. I've got them in mind for the current joint project with
predatrix when we finish it, assuming it comes in under the length limit for shorts.
