Okay, today was filled with sending out essays, a short story and a poem to various contests. I felt like I was sitting still and my work was flying out to all parts of the U.S. by e- and snail-mail. I had put off several entries and realized that deadlines were approaching. In other cases, I entered early so that I didn’t have to remember to check the dates.
And now once again, I wait.
In the meantime, I sent an essay to a glossy magazine to see if it would buy my work. Ditto with a poem to a different glossy.
And now, I wait.
Again in the meantime, query letters go forth to agents for Mad Max 1.
And I wait. And I wait. And I wait.
Sigh.
Been there, done that. Still doing that. . . .
Pull up a chair…I'm waiting over here too.
