La Vie Boheme

Of course, to counterbalance all

Of course, to counterbalance all of the good writing vibes lately, I got a rejection this morning from Elysian Fiction. It was one of the good ones though, very personal and complimentary with an invitation to submit again.

Now I'm not sure what to do with "Rhythm" though. Common sense tells me not to sit on it for long, because I'll end up not submitting it anywhere. However, the perfectionist in me wants to pull it back for another round of fine-tuning, or at least a round of making everybody read it again and tell me if it works. Huh. I'd submit it to Strange Horizons, but I already submitted "Ocean's Edge" to them originally, and I've got them on my list for "Midsummer" -- I'd hate to reveal the depths of my selkie obsession quite so soon, especially since I think with "Midsummer" I'm done with selkie stories for a while.

Decisions, decisions... Maybe I'll bluesky it and send it off to one of the "great big" names...
