I really need to stop submitting to places that don't list a decision turnaround time cos they're always the ones that take absolutely *ages* >.< granted, this particular story is over 5k so there's not a lot of places it can go but it's been with them since August and I'm impatient lol

Ooh my last story of the year will be out on Mon-Tues (Monday in the litmags time zone, Tuesday in mine) a fun little flash fiction piece that I'm very proud of ^.^

Hmm three of the websites I have work on are currently inaccessible, think I might have to add a page to my website for the published but lost pieces >.<

Sooo excited to share my story One and a half socks, this is one of my favourites, and I really enjoyed playing with first person plural pov ^.^ this one took a while to find a home (around 2 & half years) but what a lovely home it has found ^.^
This week from Hell Itself, the robots are(n't) revolting!

On one hand, most lit mags being in the US/opposite time zone to me means I tend to wake up to decision emails, on the other hand my sleepy brain spent far too long trying to work out what the 15th month was this morning until I realised it was a US date format >.<

looking for a place to submit one of my sci-fi stories, and I keep going to myself, oh if it's not suitable for this story, it'll be suitable for one of my other sci-fi stories...but that one has found a home now, I'm free of searching for its place (it'll be out later this year)

hmmph, looks like my defib wires are gonna be changed before the end of November, shame they couldn't have decided that when they were in there last year lol the wires are 18 & 16 years old, so definitely at the end of their life (1st defib was 20years ago this coming January)

have come to the conclusion that I'm just gonna have to email the makers of my violin bow hair (it's the synthetic coruss hair) cos I have no clue how to get all this rosin off it >.< I finally got rosin specifically for this hair type and super overdid it and now it plays *awfully*

My favourite thing to do is go and grumpily check my submission spreadsheet cos I feel like a place should've responded by now, only to find it's been out barely two weeks and I just have zero concept of time >.<

don't mind getting rejections, but could very much do without gmail sticking them in my spam >.<

it's supposed to be sunny again towards the end of the week, so I should really take all my print publications outside and get some nice pics for the banner image thingy on my website ^.^

Yesterday I was thinking of a piece I submitted that had May-August at the latest decision timeframe, and how I hadn't heard back yet and it might be a good sign...

Yeah, I woke up to a rejection email for it this morning >.< (& it's 5k+ so a nightmare to find places for)
