New Years Resolutions #26, #74 Completed

It’s hard to believe that almost half the year is over and we’re already headlong into spring. It seems like only yesterday I was wearing Long John’s and dreading stepping out into that -20 below frigid temperatures with my hood up, my scarf tucked around my mouth, hoping I didn’t catch frostbite on my way to work (hey, I’m an editor, my fingers are my life!)

So going over my list of New Years Resolutions I noticed, without realizing it that I managed to complete a few more of my goals for the year 2009. Unfortunately, it’s not resolution #1 Get a Literary Agent or #3 Get “Second Death” published (Click Here to View) but some of the lesser resolutions that involve my getting rejected from literary magazines. Oh what fun! At least I have a job.

In my attempts to get my latest short story published entitled “The Fantasy Writer” from four online magazines (which I shall remain nameless but you could probably guess) I honestly didn’t think I’d get rejected within a 24-hour period. Nevertheless, here are those resolutions that I have concluded.
