Well, I now either have something on submission or something reserved for submission on October 1 when the market opens at all of the markets that I consider my top priorities to get into eventually. Except Lightspeed. They haven't been open since 2022. #AmWriting #AmWritingFiction #WritersOfMastodon #AuthorsOfMastodon #Bookstodon #ShortStory #Writer #Writing #WritersLlife #WritingCommunity #WritersCommunity

So, I was planning to get everything back in order after returning from travel at midnight last night, but post-dinner, I sat down with a story I'd begun before travel. Three hours later, I got to a "what's next" and was too tired to go on. The Vampire Lestat episode 4 in real-time like it was the 1970s! I'll get back to the story when I wake up tomorrow.

Today I found out that my essay “The Anxious Writer” has been purchased by Open Minds Quarterly, my story “This is the Time Just before Spider Woman Meets Kiviuq” has been purchased by the Delta Literary Arts Society, and my story “Wolf Mother” has begun its editorial process at Augur Magazine. I also have two short stories coming out in an anthology called Mihko Kiskisiwin (Blood Memory) published by the Indigenous Poets Society, possibly as soon as this December. https://www.openmindsquarterly.com @indigenousauthors #WritingCommunity #Essayist #CNF #ShortStory #WritersOfMastodon #AuthorsOfMastodon #LivedExperience #Anxiety #MentalHealth
