Just got a rejection on
Just got a rejection on "Rhythm of the Tides" from Fantasy and Science Fiction magazine. I was a very good girl and immediately turned around and emailed it off to Strange Horizons. The letter from F&SF may or may not have been a form letter. It was signed in what looks like real ink, and it mentions that the story was 'nicely written'. He said it didn't hold his interest though. This sounds suspiciously like the letter Julie got from them as well, so I have a feeling he may say that to all the girls. Nice turnaround time though: 13 days.
I'm feeling very fidgety about my writing right now. It really bothers me that "Midsummer" doesn't seem to have the emotional punch I want it to have. That's my strong point! I know, based on the comments I've gotten so far, that it's probably because one of the characters, Natalie, isn't drawn well enough. That bothers me too -- that's my other strong point. Because emotion and character are so intuitive for me, I have no earthly idea how to consciously fix it. Grar. This probably explains why I haven't done my hour yet today. Hard to feel motivated. I feel like I'm writing more, but not necessarily writing better at this point.
