Submitting Stuff

Sent out one of my stories again today--finally, when I looked at Fantasy Magazine, the note that they were closed to submissions was gone. Then started to look for where to send others, and found a new anthology: Fat Girl in a Strange Land
http://crossedgenres.com/announcements/fat-girl-in-a-strange-land-submissions-open-for-new-anthology/
So far, April was the only month I made my goal of ten submissions, though I almost filled up March's remaining slots, as I submitted more than ten in April.
What--I didn't post this yet? Well, I was interrupted. Someone broke into my car (3 windows) and stole the radio. I may end up driving to Wiscon without a radio--I fear scheduling that repair around a new job will be problematic. At least the auto glass people come to you.
And--while talking to police and the insurance company (over the phone, the police don't actually come to look at the scene of the crime), I got one more story submitted to a new market. Multitasking is my friend!
Next--got to clean the glass out of the car, since I'll have to drive to work in it as-is, and do some work on the yard in the shadow of my half-demolished garage. Perhaps I'll plan a story, with car thieves as the villains...the only punishment these guys will probably ever get is vicarious. *sigh*
Onward!

Date: 2011-05-23 03:31 am (UTC)I guess at least I had a camping tarp! (I used the one that had been used as a painter's dropcloth at some point; not sure how I got one disfigured like that, but I figure it's less likely to be stolen than a new-looking one.
How stupid is it that I worry about people stealing a camping tarp?
I didn't come up with a story yet; my morning's headache came back and the noise of the shop-vac did not help brain function. Maybe tomorrow.
