I really feel good about how my writing is coming of late. It seems that I'm learning something new or growing in some way every single day. I've settled into a routine of writing two good quality short stories every month, and sending them out the next month. My goal being to send out 30 short stories before the next Narnia movie comes out. Doesn't matter if I get rejected, its just getting over the stress of sending them out that is important.

So far I've got one rejection, one that hasn't had so much as a peep since January, and two out with no response. I've got high hopes for both the stories currently out, and the two new ones I have for June are just plain beautiful. (Yeah I know, trust a writer to sing her own praises)

Seriously though, even the people in my critique circle have given them a positive review. I just wish I could write like that all the time.

Happy early Memorial Day everyone, and God bless our vets!

writ·er [rahy-ter]
–noun

1. A disease that strikes normal human beings and changes them into antisocial paper and/or computer addicts. Symptoms include carrying a small notepad at all times, obsession with plots and characters, inability to not write, and inability to keep to normal sleep hours. People with classic writing symptoms may reflect their characters moods, be easily scared after writing their first horror, and actually cry if they forget a cool dream that could have been made into a story.

Cures: None.
