Of the 37 submission, 29 have been rejected. I wrote a lot of new flash fiction this past year, 7 of which were submitted, and most of the rest of which are being posted here, one each Friday. Only two new short stories entered the mix for me, though. This is something that will change in 2010.

I attempted NaNoWriMo, and came up with some good ideas and some interesting characters. I will be developing some of that in the coming year, as well as a handful of stories I started, but never finished. This includes some of the flash pieces, which are really just story ideas given a few moments on paper instead of worked into real stories.

Life is constantly changing and in my struggle to keep up, I have let slide some of the things that are important to me. New things have become important to me, yes, but some of the things I fill my time with are just pointless distractions. Yes, I’m looking at you, Facebook. ;)

2009 was a good year. 2010 will be a fantastic year.
