Week 5! Our furnace died on Friday. It’s also been one of the coldest weeks all winter. Clearly our appliances have a (dark) sense of humor. Yesterday was Girl Scout cookie “go” day, so since the house was cold, Kyra and I bundled up and sold cookies door-to-door. By the time we arrived back home (several boxes lighter), we had heat.
Writing:
- Poem about the color orange. It is full of whimsy. And adjectives.
Submitting:
- One Good Turn, (very) tongue-in-cheek science fiction story.
- Payment, an even shorter (25 words) version of Cash or Check
Rejections:
- None!
Acceptances:
- The Burden of So Many Roses to Kazka Press for their undelivered valentine prompt. The story should be “live” in a few days.
I also spent a good deal of time revising/editing two stories, One Good Turn and another that I’m set to submit in this upcoming week.
