I hope I will not jinx myself in saying that I have completed 2 short stories- 3 more to go, and after revision and lots of critique I will finally have something to sell. Finally have something published.
It's exciting. The muse doesn't like the pressure though of creating something good, so after the 1st story flowed out of me, I have stalled out. (It can't be all right/or close enough/it must be AMAZING)
but I will push forward.
Story 2 has been redrafted about 3 times so far but getting closer to a good story every time.
Story 3 is just in my head- need to get it onto the page.
please wish me luck
