submission update I’m up to 29 submissions, 11 rejections, 2 acceptances, and 1 withdrawal from those 29. As I write this, I received a rejection with feedback for the piece, “here we are.” The magazine liked it but there were a few issues that took me out of the running. I forgot I paid for a critique when I submitted it, and I found the critique helpful. The piece is 2500 words, and I don’t think I can afford to pay for an editor to look at it so it’ll need to be self-edited. This seems antithetical to interviewing editors a few weeks back but I’m looking at shorter pieces (under 1000 words) for the editing. (I’ve also been slammed with a $600 tax bill from the state due to incorrect reporting for tax year 2018. I forgot about the bill until Sunday night and the time to protest is now long gone; there is that.)
