La Vie Boheme

Fastest. Rejection. Ever.

I got a six-hour rejection from the story I sent out yesterday morning, essentially informing me that I may have unintentionally plagiarized from a very well known humorous fantasy author (the exact wording was that my story was "very similar in tone and content" to the opening of a book). How embarrassing! I'm resisting the urge to email the editor back and make sure she understands that I never read said author, so I couldn't possibly have done such a thing on purpose. :P

In other news, I'm doing pretty well with my "five days a week" resolution so far.
