Wow!!
Friday, May 22nd, 2009Well it’s been kinda fun around here for the last week or so, at least writing wise. I’ve had 3 shorts picked up by journals.
A rather dark piece that I penned a few months back called Fly on the Wall of a Serial Killing has been published and is availble to read at Flash Fire 500. FF500 features some very edgy writing–they even sport an adult audeinces only disclaimer.
One of my favorite stories, The Neighbor’s Cat, will be appearing in Issue 8: Broken Clocks of a very well designed printable journal called Colored Chalk sometime in the next few weeks. I’ll let you know when it’s live. In the meantime, Editor Jason Heim has loads of other interesting things to read and do at the site.
And Ink, Sweat and Tears will be printing my story Capacity. I’m pleased ’cause I really enjoy the majority of writing on this site–(Helen Pletts’ poem And there will come a time especially). Yet again, I’ll let you know when it goes live there.
As if all that wasn’t enough, my writers group in Berkhamsted is quite fun, albeit a bit small. I’ve just finished a brand-new story. I’ve gotten 6 rejections in the past few days too, but so it goes. And my friend and fellow writer Ann Hite made it into the top 50 in Amazon’s Breakthrough Novel Contest. Yeah, Ann!!!
