LJ enhancement?

Anybody else getting intermittent spam through their LiveJournal notification emails? I don't know if LJ has stupidly made emails accessible to non-account holders, or sold their mailing list, or if they've had a security breach. Either way, I really don't need viagra right now, thanks. I'll give it one more batch, and then I'm going to have to shut down those addresses and generate new ones. (All hail Sneakemail, which makes this easy.)

April Word Count

Wow has it been a long time since I've done one of these. Mostly because there hasn't been much to report.

But, April had writing in it!

Total new words in April (all short fiction): 3683 words

Not bad! (That's most of "Observer Effect"/Uplink and all of "Bridesmaid From Heck", in case future-me wants to know.) Both were written to market deadlines, both of which I made.

No queries last month, but 3 short story submissions. Also not bad!


Mind you, I'd feel better about all this if I hadn't completed those stories, hit the end of the month, and promptly dropped writing like it'd bit me. I meant to keep going, but somehow here it is the middle of May and I've written a grand total of zip so far. Still, there's half a month left. And the querying's been happening, so that's something.
