Meanwhile, On The Other Side Of The World

Now I did mean to take a short break after completing my novel in November, but this has gone on long enough! Okay, I have been preoccupied with finding a new job, going on a vacation, and teaching myself MySQL and PHP, but in the meantime, writerly things have been happening, some of them without my knowledge, I discovered today to my great cheer.

So let’s get up-to-date:

  • More sales, this time to AnthologyBuilder.com!
  • More rejections, too (‘Toby’s Trophies’ by AHMM, ‘Prisoner of war’ by Interzone, ‘What happened while Don was watching the game’ by ASIM)!
  • More work to be done on my first novel… Perhaps another 20,000 words for an acceptable version.
  • And last but not least: still more sales!
