Submission decisions
Wow, so it's been a while since I've submitted any of my short fiction, but it's time to get it back out there. I've spent several hours researching and organizing my lists of potential markets for 1 short story, 1 short novella, and 2 pieces of flash fiction. I'm too tired tonight to concentrate on the final e-sub, but plan on having 2 or 3 of the stories go out tomorrow. Then I'll be on to revision on another one, and plotting/outlining my NaNoWriMo novel that I started last month.

Back to work
Well, Andrew and I just returned from our honeymoon a few days ago. Everything was great, and now I'm dealing with the giant task of unpacking, organizing all the wedding gifts, thank you notes, and house cleaning. The good thing about all this is that I have nothing on my schedule besides normal work stuff. My free time is freed up with no deadlines. This means I'll finally have time to get back to my writing.
I think that I'll warm myself up by working on a couple of critiques for my

Writing again
Well, it's only 2 1/2 weeks before my wedding, and I managed to find some time to write today. I just started to work on a short story involving a cursed old man hiding in a cave in the arctic and the retired merchant that badgers him into revealing his secrets. I need to finish the rough draft by tomorrow, but I'm having some neck strain now, so the rest will have to wait until tomorrow.
In other projects, my piece for Compendium should appear in the October issue. I signed all the ap

Paper War
I've been waging a war on paper the last few days. So far, paper is winning. The more I clean up, the more of it I find. The problem is, for much of it, I feel an obligation to do a thorough examination and decide whether or not it's worth keeping.The mailperson is my enemy. He, sometimes she, keeps leaving more paper in my mail box. I'm not talking about my Christmas cards, which I cherish, but all the other stuff dropped off for me to sort out. At times it's torture to come home and see the new pile the DH has set on the kitchen table.
I've discovered tons of magazines over a year old. They were trying to hide in a magazine holder on the side of the couch, but not doing a good job of it, since they were spilling over. Of course, I decided to check the headings on the covers to see if some of the information inside might prove valuable. Wouldn't you know it, I was right. Many articles seemed to good to give up.
I've already mentioned here before about how I also have a compulsion to print out emails that seem important to me. The result is I have lots of important pieces of paper. When there's an abundance, which is the most important? And, where's the one I really need? It is a quandary.
What about you? Is paper your enemy? Are you also waging a war against it? Who is winning?
