Slacking

Ugh, I really need to do revisions later today.  I need to record everything I've written so I can hear what it sounds like read aloud.  Perhaps that will break the barrier of revision being such a hassle, since there will at least be some new process that I'll throw in the mix.

It was me; I can admit it.

I broke Twitter on Christmas day.

Three stories today.  The fire burns brighter.

rate of December

If I could sustain the production of December, I would have five pieces to send out fresh each month.  Unfortunately, that is unlikely if I'm critical of what's actually coming out the nib of the pen.

January 15 deadline

By January 15th, 10-15 submissions to editors/agents need to be postmarked.  That's a goal.

It might not be your goal, or a particularly ambitious goal, unless that considers that I need to stop being lazy and take a cruel pen to a bunch of stories that have not been revised.

Then those fine children of mine will be sent off into the trenches of the slush piles, mail bins, and generally unpleasant waiting rooms of print purgatory.

Oh, and I'm not going to do more than five simultaneous submissions.  In the event of simultaneous submissions, that will only count for 2/3 of a submission, because, well, I determined that to be so with my own special algebra.
