This blog is my journey to become a successful writer of novels and short stories -- my education on how to write, the writing process, developing persuasive skills, finding one’s creative center, editing, and getting published. The guidance, advice, books, websites, resources, contests, and prompts that work for me may help you with your writing goals to write as a hobby or to become a professional author.

Tin House
After five and a half months Tin House has sent its rejection -- partial page xeroxed form letter.
Always remember even the best get rejections, Jim. Even JK Rowling got her fair share. That keeps me going at the moment as I haven't had so much success of late that I had a few years ago. Hope you are well? :)
Thanks. Good to hear from you. Working on a novel which is taking up a lot of time. Much more difficult than short stories. Your Catfish blog seems like a lot of good novel material. But whatever you write on, I'm sure it will be a great novel. jim
Oh that's great, Jim!! Yes novel writing is an entirely different art form I find, from the short story. I'm currently working on a new novel! Nearing the end now. Funnily enough, the novel I am working on does involve a catfish lol! :)
