Rough timeline of stuff, ish.
Sunday: Get rejection, bringing my total out subs to 17.
Monday: 17 is still good, let's see if I can get it up to 20, though CW is due to reject me real soon now.
Tuesday: Two more rejections. (15.) Neither is CW.
Wednesday: Submitted a thing! (16.)
Today: Place that previously gave me a lovely personal saying that I had sent them exactly what they wanted in theory but in practice they weren't going to buy it, to which I sent another thing in the same 'verse (half the length), closed forever and returned all subs. (... 15. Tear-face emoji.)
According to my stats on the Grinder I have made 51 submissions this year, which, since my goal was 52 submissions by the end of the year, seems pretty solid. (I am upgrading my goal to 105 submissions on the year.) One acceptance, five personals, lotta form.
I have been utterly unable to do substantial writing for about a week, it's like my brain hit some point of peak exhaustion and crashed out. I am, however, revising a story for a call and plotting a poem; I think I am not even trying to hit any of the other things with 31 May due dates because I don't have any plotbunnies to chase for them. That's fine, I put them in my to-do list mostly in case something happens and because CFSes work well as writing prompts for me.
