Here's the scorecard I use to summarize my writing submissions, in case you're wondering what it's like to be a writer...
36 Total Submissions as of January 2019This is a listing of writings I've submitted. This doesn't include items like the "Five Sentence Fiction" or "Horror Bites" writing challenges - you'll just have to read the blog to find those! The order of submission is from newest (top) to oldest (bottom).
17 Published
2 Accepted (in editing or accepted, but not yet published)
13 Rejected
1 Cancelled - editor issue - he disappeared!
2 No Response
0 Waiting for Acceptance/Rejection
1 Withdrawn
Submitted Works: A more detailed version of my submissions, along with information on potential future submissions, may be found as a Google Docs Spreadsheet by clicking here. (Yeah, I'll update it soon...)
If a piece has been accepted and is available on the Internet (or in print), clicking on the Published link (or the links under the word "Published") will take you there. Please let me know if any of the links aren't working as some publishers of webzines often place older works in an archive, changing their address. If it says "accepted" but does not have a link, it is not yet publicly published.
Titles highlighted in green (for example, My Really Great Story) are for charity, usually part of an anthology.
