It took the better part of three days to get my mind settled after vacation. I need a Friday Done List to make me feel I didn't spend most of the week recovering.
Goal 1. Adult Short Stories, Essays, and Humor
- I returned home to find a short story rejection. But the publication offered me a discount on a subscription! I had already subscribed for a couple of months. I like the material there, but it's just so difficult to find time to read everything I want to read.
- Worked on a humor piece I started before I left town.
- Submitted said humor piece. This particular publication uses an AI for initial copyediting, and I've already heard from it with a complaint about my using the wrong font on a subheading that no other publication has ever objected to. I've already dealt with it. Whoops. Now the AI wants me to cut 70 words. Yes, humor should be short. But it is a freaking AI telling me this.
- When I'm traveling, I email myself ideas that I then have to enter into my digital writer's journal. I believe I've finished that.
Goal 3. Community Building/Marketing/Branding
- Did two blog posts, including this one.
- Promoted the first blog post.
