Hey everybody. I was thinking. I always talk about books and writing. I even talk about movies. But it’s a rare occasion that I talk about music. Well, today, I’m changing that. Sure, I’ve had a few rejections I can tell you all about, but this is more fun. Today, I want to mention one
I’ll get to that very telling title in a second. First this: I received a 1 month rejection from The Pedestal Magazine today. There was no notes or anything, just a regular old form reject. It was for a story that I have shopped around quite a bit, and although I particularly like this one,
First, the horror: Okay, now that that’s out of the way (if only). I received two rejections this week. One 4 day reject from Gud, and a 65 day reject from http://www.intergalacticmedicineshow.com/cgi-bin/mag.cgi?do=content&article=home That’s Orson Scott Card’s Intergalactic Medicine Show. And you know what, now that I think about it, the review will have to wait.
I started cleaning house today. And by house I mean the blog. I went through with a sharpened machete and slashed away at dead links. Now, it’s possible I nicked a link that I shouldn’t have, so if you notice yours has gone kaput, just tell me and I’ll bandage it up as best I
Why not start out with a classic? Not to overstate this or anything, but Richard Matheson’s I am Legend is a masterpiece, and you’ll be hard-pressed to find someone who disagrees. Though short (170 pages) compared to today’s standards, this novel has more life in it than many contemporary novels breaking 500 pages. What I
Yesterday, I created a new blog that I planned on using as a book-review site. I changed my mind. Instead, I decided to simply post the book reviews here, where I already have a few readers. I will still post about writing here, but I want to branch out a bit and add some new
I’m tired of numbering rejections, so I’m not going to anymore. I received a 15 day rejection from Heliotrope Magazine for my story “State of the Union.” I immediately sent it back out to GUD. They have very quick turn around for rejections (not so quick if you’re accepted). Cheers
With all the recent posts about bread, I thought I should explain. Those who have read my interview (see side-bar) know that I closely relate many things with writing. One of those things is cooking. Certain things can inspire me to write, and a lot of those things have to do with my environment and
It was really a last minute thing. I had spent the past two days (both snow days for me since my college closed down–no work, no class) shoveling snow, doing homework, reading, and watching movies. Well, I know I should have written something–anything–but that wasn’t happening. I won’t go into details, it just wasn’t. So,
Hey. I figured I’d just post the link to the recipe I mentioned below. I should probably start doing this whenever I post pictures of food, but since it isn’t my recipe and I didn’t alter it, I didn’t want to pass it off as my own. So, Kate, and anyone else interested, here’s the
