Back to Journal  « Telltale Audio - October 2007 | 2007 Submission Log: Weeks 41-42 | 2007 Submission Log Weeks 43-44 » 2007 Submission Log: Weeks 41-42 October 29, 2007 Submissions 440-448 I've got new poetry, and plenty of old verse collecting dust, so I made a concerted effort to get as much of it (back) out there as possible with poem submission to... The Atlantic Monthly (my 5th-7th subs there) Strange Horizons (14th) A Public Space (2nd) Light (1st-4th) Rejections 310-313 MAD Magazine (77 days, snail mail) Strange Horizons (23 days) Orson Scott Card's Intergalactic Medicine Show (3 months on the nose) Realms of Fantasy (45 days from DC, YFOP) Acceptance 70 (total)/45 (via slush) "Church of Saturn" (poem) to Murky Depths. Of Interest I seem to have a record number of unsold stories and other items that I still feel are publishable. It used to be I'd retire a submission after so many rejections not because the editors didn't like them, but because time and growth let me know that the stories no longer represented my best work (or even decent work). Now I seem to be amassing an unpublished library of work that's a cut above the stuff I've sold. For a while it's been at the point where the effort it's taking to keep so many submissions alive and in the slush (including finding and reading new markets, etc) has been overwhelming--and interfering more and more with the writing time. Just when I think I've got a handle on this time management thing... |
