Happy Frustration.
Dec. 12th, 2009 11:58 amOne of my stories has gotten two "OMG you're so, so close!!" rejections in a row.
Finished my required short story for this week. It's definitely a plotless literary one. There's a story, to be sure, but I can tell I've written something I don't possess all the tools to evaluate.
Maybe I'll write full on plotted stories later with the characters from my literary ramblings. The Tangoing Psychiatrist Versus the Aliens!
Anyway...Nano stats:
Finished:
Winecask Bellies and owl Wings- 1600 words
Dead Angel Diana: 400 words
It Takes One to Flamenco: 2200 words.
Total words written:
8217 words on 13 different stories.
Average: 747 words a day.
(I'm aiming for Half-Nano: 833 words a day)

Another short story!
Oct. 18th, 2009 11:20 amIn keeping with my pattern of finishing short stories two at a time, I've finished another one! This is the one I wrote with the Shine anthology in mind, and is thus near-future, optimistic science fiction, which means it's as opposite my usual writing style as you can get.
