I Have Become Accustomed To Rejection

Outstanding Submissions: 24

Rejections: 1, personal, Nanoism. I like Ben White, editor of Nanoism. I really like his writing, like The Woman on the Sidewalk in Sub-Lit. I don’t have much to say about this rejection–I have a better sense of what he might be looking for and he gave really good feedback. You cannot ask for much more from a rejection.

My trainer took me into the backwoods today for a hilly hike but what she termed hills were really severe inclines that made me wish for a rescue helicopter. It is hurting me to type this message but I’m persevering for all seven of you reading this. That’s how much I care.

I have a couple stories out just now. This has been one of those months where stories that have long been accepted are making their way out into the world. At Twelve Stories, This Program Contains Actual Surgical Procedures and at Storyglossia, I have a story in the Musical Obsession issue—We Do Not Speak of Graceful Things.

I will be more interesting next time.
