Mid-NaNo Update

12th November, 2009 - No Comments

Since my last update. Crow Spirit was rejected by Strange Horizons and submitted to Chiaroscuro. May 9th, 1999 was submitted to Strange Horizons. The Demon Within was rejected by Black Gate and submitted to Intergalactic Medicine Show. Dancing with Death was rejected by The Pedestal and submitted to and rejected by Greatest Uncommon Denominator. Last but not least, The Albino was submitted to Greatest Uncommon Denominator.

On the lines of my OAC application, the committee meeting to discuss fiction submissions is on December 14th.

For NaNoWriMo, I’m at 9007 words and spent today writing other things. I like the fantasy story I’m working on, but it’s about to hit the major climax already. I really like two of the fairy characters I’ve created, but I don’t care all that much about the goblins. They are suffering from being the boring honorable heroes.

I’ve found a handful of new markets, contests and anthologies, so ideas are flowing. Right now I’m working on picking flash fiction pieces to submit to The Pedestal.

I was going to post excerpts of my novel weekly, but as it’s quickly turning into a short story and I’ve already missed two weeks… Might post a little taste on Monday.
