Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Congrats Jilli!
I've started writing a book even though I have no business writing a book, but I come up with ideas for stories all the time and I want to try writing one down.

First rejection. I'm disappointed, but not terribly. On to the next mag.

I hope the next one goes better.
I find that my old nemesis, lack of time, has become my greatest obstacle.

Last night I finished chapter 1. I can think of many parts I'd like to adjust (inadequate description, questionable time passage, character saying something that violates my rules for that character), but my plan is to avoid getting mired in revision by just charging ahead and get through the whole story first leaving the occasional "fix this" note.

Because books.
Gud, what kind of novel are you writing?
Also, GOOD CALL on not self-editing too heavily this pass. Just write it, and change it later. My two cents only, but it works for me.
