Weekly writing check-in: the one with Gatsby

A fairly quiet week. There’s that one rejection, and the only reason I haven’t sent the story back out is there’s a market I’m looking at that opens next week. So, I’ll send it along then.

I’m in the last week of the Gatsby class, so I gathered up all the information I need for my essay.

My topic? Gatsby and the Great War. I even looked up the order of battle for 3rd Division (because clearly, the whole novel hinges on that). I was hoping it would write itself overnight, but that hasn’t happened.

So, that’s on the list for this coming week. Along with … other things.
