Submission Statement: April 2018

Although not as good as March, April was a solid month that featured a little but of everything. Lots of submissions, some rejections, an acceptance, and a few other bits and pieces. April 2018 Report Card Submissions Sent: 13 Rejections: 10 Acceptances: 3 Publications:… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: April 2018”

Submission Statement: March 2018

I often start these submission statements with a subtle (or not-so subtle) complaint about my production for the month. Well, not this time. March was a really good month, one of the best of my short story submittin’ career. March 2018 Report Card Submissions… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: March 2018”

Submission Statement: February 2018

February is in the rearview, and despite a significant drop in the number of submissions sent, it was a pretty good month. I broke the longest rejections streak of my career at 27, so that alone makes February a-okay in my book. February 2018… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: February 2018”

Submission Statement: January 2018

January has come and gone, and here’s my first submission statement for 2018. A very productive month, and since this level of production will likely be the norm this year (I hope), I’m changing the format of these posts so you don’t have read… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: January 2018”

Submission Statement: December 2017

December was another good month for submissions. I didn’t think I’d match November’s output, but I did, and I had more than just rejections to tally in the final month of the year. December 2017 Report Card Submissions Sent: 13 Rejections: 8 Other: 0… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: December 2017”

Submission Statement: November 2017

November was my most productive month of the year for short stories, maybe my most productive month ever. The reason? I finished some new stories and started sending them out, which led to a record number of submissions and a fair number of rejections.… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: November 2017”

Submission Statement: October 2017

October was a slightly more productive month. I sent out more submissions than what I’ve been averaging, and I finished some new stories that’ll be going out soon. I also expanded into a new genre, mystery/crime, which will certainly be reflected on these monthly… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: October 2017”

Submission Statement: September 2017

September was a slow month, and this is gonna be the shortest submission statement I’ve ever published. I mean, I didn’t even get any rejections. That can’t be good for my brand. September 2017 Report Card Submissions Sent: 3 Rejections: 0 Acceptances: 0 Publications:… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: September 2017”

Submission Statement: August 2017

August, the month of my birth, was pretty uneventful, submission-wise. I spent a lot of time working on a new novel, and I finished a novelette that will be part of my first foray into self-publishing (more on that soon). Anyway, here’s the down-and-dirty… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: August 2017”

Submission Statement: July 2017

July was a much better month mostly because I finally ended my six-month-long acceptance drought. That alone is enough to crown July as my best month of the year. Here’s the nitty-gritty on my submission endeavors in July. July 2017 Report Card Submissions Sent:… Continue Reading “Submission Statement: July 2017”
