Back to Journal ![]() « Telltale - June 2007 | 2007 Submission Log: Week 26 - Halfway Point | The SFWA Walk of Shame » 2007 Submission Log: Week 26 - Halfway Point June 30, 2007 Submissions 397-399: Stories to Strange Horizons (my 10th), Weird Tales (my 4th, but first under current editor Ann VanderMeer), and the 13th Chiaroscuro Short Story Contest (my first, but I've submitted to Chizine before). Rejections 275-279 Strange Horizons (20 days on a story; no comments this time), Shimmer (10 days on a story; "just wish there'd been more spec"--meaning "speculative element") and Tin House (12 days on a batch of poems sent for the Winter issue; form letter) Of Interest: I forgot about this last week: Doug Cohen (slush editor for Realms of Fantasy) emailed me to let me know that my current story submission will be passed to Shawna, which makes two in a row for me (my only two times getting past Doug since he joined the fray). And I woulda hit 400 subs today, but I misremembered a playwriting deadline as "postmarked by" instead of "received by." Now I've gotta get all angsty and superstitious about what that milestone sub should be.
