Count me out :) HM

HM on 17/9

I can finish whatever changes I decide the story needs by Friday since it's only a couple of pages and it has been written already. Now to have someone look it over, at least for the nitpicks LD ... I've been blessed with a HUGO nomination for editing and as a former long-term ASIM editor, slush re...

Where two or three people from here can see it and if they are willing to, to show me where I goofed it.

LD,

send it me if you want and I'll give you my thoughts.

HM for me which is a nice consistent result.
Congratulations to the other HM's, commiserations to the R's, and to those still waiting, Good Luck!

I asked Joni how long she thought it would be until results would come out for Q2 and she said three weeks. It shows that the judges and everyone involved in the process are busy people (and perhaps this might not be the only thing they do in their busy lives), and one thing is clear: we will hear ...

Isn't it satisfying managing to squeeze the sub in on time (just) rather than have to wait out another 3 months. And no interrupted sleep from a late sub Phew!

I squeezed in also. 30th June confirmation email from Joni.

Converting upside down Australasian to US... Is it 24/3/2016 or 3/24/16?

Got my acknowledgement 24th March 2016

These posts have been enough for me to write something a little different, and who knows...

Finally!

A Huge Congrats to Rebecca, Hazlett, dstein and Athena. Well deserved!

Yeah! An HM for a 6K story was a good result.

Makes 6 HM's for me.

Now to wait and see who is on the finalist list...

So, I think that there is only one thing for it in the Shadows of Issue 32: Be True To Your Story And Write It! Begin Now And Don't Stop Until You're Smiling! Find The Time And Do It!

The only advise I could offer is to keep writing new stories - they should get better if you learn from your flaws - and keep submitting to markets. listen to the feedback you get and let that steer you.

Awesome, Steve, you are in great company! Well done.

Mike,

If it hasn't been said in a while, it's GREAT to have you here adding another dimension to the forum with your wealth of knowledge and experiences

Looking at a new story for this Q, so I have 450 words if anyone has the time to review it and pass judgement.

Thanks in advance, more than happy to swap upwards to 1K also.

Got to agree, Preston, would be a mighty view! One Day!

Congratulations to everyone

Great insight into where stories are sitting, thanks, Brad :)

Hi everyone! I submitted 5 months ago. It's only 1,000 words long. It's still mark "received." What does the category change to when they read it? Does it go to straight rejection or under review as Asimov Magazine? ICarpoz, I wouldn't worry ... have a piece out with Analog that siting at...

So I've got a couple of covers I've done and was wondering what people thought? Here is (hopefully) a link to a small version of both (but I've included a link to a large version at the end too) Here it is ...

Welcome Mike, Having worked with these great people for a couple of years and before that the Online Writing Workshop, I can smile at (and understand) your concerns and your level of control and protection of your work. While I commend your concerns, I think you'll find that most of us adopt an appr...

Well, I finally heard back from Andromeda Spaceways and I'm having trouble believing my eyes. I keep re-reading the email to make sure I'm not seeing things. But it looks like it's finally happened. wotf054 wotf053 I've been waiting a long time to post here, and I couldn't be happier. My re-worked ...

I've just finished a story collaboration with a fellow WOTF member, and we've ended up with a 6400 word story that is need of a second reader. Don't need a major in depth crit, more after higher level views/thoughts of the story, although the first 450 crit comments are always excellent too. Happy t...

Mike,

do you trust any of my friends ...

sighs, I don't have any. Woops (sounds better than asking what's your email address)

Did I just write that? It's hot here at 44 degrees C!

I have two 1K stories I'm trying to expand into longer stories in the 4-5K range. One is a fantasy that I sent to two only two flash markets and got two glowing personals from, but complained of the abrupt ending and that it should be longer to flesh the true story out. The other is a SF and I've n...

It's the universe's way of balancing out all those submissions to GUD, and Tor.com, and Dark Discoveries... Dark Discoveries... it's been over a year, and I emailed them this week to see if I'm still in the "being considered" shortlist and it turns out I am. Not a rant by the way wotf008

Happy with my first DF Honorable Mention and a Modern Fantasy piece at 6K

If you need another, PM or email it to me
