WYAOD

I participated in Write Your @ss Off Day today. Everyone was supposed to put in 8 hours on some writing-related activity. I launched a new project, and I wanted to jump in with both feet so WYAOD seemed like a plan.
  • I managed 6 hours.
  • I wrote 3,544 words.
  • I experienced a power outage that caused me to have to re-write one page. (I save frequently.)
  • I received a very disappointing rejection letter for TAoCBS.
  • I plan to goof off this evening.

Way to go on the writing your tail off!

Boo about the rejection letter, but don't let it discourage you.

WTG w WYAOD!

Stoopid rejections. The only good things to be said about them are:
1. Everyone who writes and submits knows what one is, and
2. They make the acceptance letter so much sweeter.

keep going!!
(word verification: pottesse.
You exhibit such pottesse with your writing that I know the journey from here to acceptance letter is short)

You are now one rejection letter closer to being accepted and published. WRITE ON!
