lizvogeloriginal short stories = 62
Green Ring = 2720
Falling From Ground = 2901
Total new words in September = 5683
Oh, nice! I really wasn't sure what I was going to have to show for this month. Turns out there was more nice, steady plodding than I'd realized.
Green Ring and FFG are definitely good counterpoints to have going in tandem, allowing me to switch moods when I need to.
Queries sent = 3 (plus two researched & crossed off)
Not bad! I am, if not getting back on the wagon, at least trotting along in its wheel-ruts, thanks to a little light butt-kicking from assorted quarters.
Short stories submitted = 2
For the trifecta!
Goals: More of the same. Get the other stories that are ready for it out there somewhere. Keep on with the writing.
For querying, I would really like to get through the entire list of possibles (AAR trawl + misc. bookmarks) by the end of this year. That will require a rather higher rate than I've yet done, but with that goal in mind, it seems like it should be feasible. Even if it will then leave me with a quandary for the new year. But that's next year's trouble.
Onward.
Edited because the post that gets posted in October isn't October's word count as this originally said, it's September's. I knew there was something about this one that was bugging me; I'm just embarrassed it took me until nearly November to figure out what.
