Just added this link on the sidebar. You may notice that I am too lazy to go around alphabetizing my links–so the newest ones are at the bottom, older ones at the top. I know… SO, I will place the link here too. The site is All Kinds of Writing. Good Stuff. All Kinds of
I went back to my rejected story, “Drugged,” and tightened it up as was suggested in my last rejection from Son and Foe. I sent that story to Ideomancer, and I sent a different story, called “Memories” to Son and Foe. I also sent out a query letter to Shadowed Realms. SO, yeah. Just some
