April Word Count
Tuesday, May 1st, 2018 04:30 pmHey, look, it's the first. I should do this.
Falling From Ground: 2890
original short fiction: 1005
Total new words in April: 3895
Not quota, but frankly it's a lot better than I expected. I blame the ongoing cat stuff, and also the being stumped that I discussed in my last couple of (spoilery) posts. And all the chaotic life stuff that still needs a massive infusion of time to get settled.
The short fiction was a brand new story! (The milk story.) Started to complete in a little over a week; very pleased.
And it's already been rejected!
Stories subbed: 1
Queries sent: 0
... but two agents researched and crossed off. Which at least means I'm working on it.
For May, just keep plugging. The various clusterfucks continue, so 5000 words is a target, but a soft one. Would be nice to get more short stories out there again. And the final due-diligence on querying HoM really needs to get done.
