Typo Boy "Buffista Fic 2: They Said It Couldn't Be Done." Nov 14, 2011 7:31:15 pm PST
Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.
Anya ,'Potential'
The Great Write Way, Act Three: Where's the gun?
A place for Buffistas to discuss, beta and otherwise deal and dish on their non-fan fiction projects.

I like number 3.
I finally got my rejection for my short story after nine months. It's free again. It's not that disappointing, it's the second short story I've ever written and that place gets so many submissions that it takes nine months or more to hear back. Now I can submit someplace that shouldn't take so long, just have to pick one out.

My Drollerie Press short stories are available to me for re-publishing. Is trying to get them re-published a waste of time, since the first publication rights are gone? Or should I use them as a resume to get something else published?

Connie - are they something that Drabblecast would be interested in? [link]

Also, you can do a duotrope search for markets that accept reprints - some do, depending on previous circulation.

On tonight's installment of Thin-skinned writer is thin-skinned, insecure, and possibly crazy: my writing is not going as well as I would like, which happens. But someone on my FB posting a comment of "Jilli, this is getting to be a refrain. Enough with the wordcount broadcast already! Geez!" is not helping my mood.
t nope, the insecure and possibly crazy tag won't close

Woe to the fucking wicked.
My college roommate's brother had, for the longest time, as his away message on IM a horoscope he'd once gotten: "You've always wanted a helper monkey, but your new harmer monkey will have to do."
I think that may be appropriate for you.
I feel your pain on the lack of word-count. This paper simply does not want to be written.

Ha! Harmer monkey! I think that's what I'll mentally tag that person as.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

This person needs to not be friends with writers.
