indecisive and stalling

let’s get the obvious out of the way, maybe i’m just lacking motivation. maybe i’m the one holding me back. maybe i just need to sit down like i’m doing right now and write but for fiction instead. i feel a deep itch somewhere to write to create but when it comes time to bring pen to paper or fingers to keyboard my mind seizes up something nasty and i can’t breathe. the haters will tell you…

personal projects

let’s talk about fairness (question mark) in the publishing industry. i’m not here to make a judgment or anything but rather to talk through my thought process on certain matters. let’s look at the facts: i’ve been submitting to journals and publishers i’ve been reviewing a lot of submission guidelines simultaneous submissions are not allowed with a lot of submissions i’ve had some…

[permanentleigh]

every so often i sit my ass behind a computer screen, usually on my bed, and submit to a bunch of journals and publishers. too many to keep track of.
