apocabigbang needs more vidders/artists/mixers who are ... something. More willing to do something other than SPN, RPF, or both, it seems. Oddly enough, though, my Angel: The Series fic with the OC is the one that got picked up before the Dresden Files (book series) one. Which still hasn't been picked up, but there you go. And on the plus side, if that one doesn't get picked up then I have only one fic to edit into submission! Yay!
Two rejections out of three done. I should start doing some more submissions either this week or next, but I don't know what to think of the last one being... almost four weeks to hear from them. I dont' know if that's a good sign or a bad sign. And I'm refusing to get my hopes up because I have a shoebox full of rejection letters that say I shouldn't. And considering some of these letters are small postcards, that's a lot of rejection letters.
I have Pen I could do. I could even pound some of my short stories into shape and submit them places, which may be what I end up doing because I think I want to work on ... I don't know what to work on. I want to work on Long Road some more rather than Pen, but the truth is I'm scared witless of submitting anything anymore. Which is probably not helping getting Martine done, either, for that matter. Ugh, writing. Why does it have to be such a damned lonely and precarious job. Truth is, I should probably do both Pen and some short stories this month. Something to bring to work and fuss with tomorrow, I guess. And then work on editing Long Road, what, next month? Probably. And have that ready for publication by the end of March. Get the proof copy, check it over, send out ARCs (hah. That's a joke and a half.) to whoever wants them and then be ready to market and things by June. Which is also a laugh. Oi.
I should just settle myself to writing fanfic for the rest of my life, I swear.
... Right. Ending this entry before it gets too maudlin or self-pitying. Oi.
Also, as nice as it is to have confirmation that Supernatural!Michael angel person is a Sorcerer, that does not help the augh stop smiling at me!!! impulses I have whenever I think about the way he smiled. Dear god that was creepy.
... and reading about other people's short story and novel selling success is just damned depressing. I'm happy for my f-list but... damn. Now I just feel like a failure who should just sit in her basement and not even try. Here's to attempting to kick my own ass into shape.
