Just a really quick update today. First, for the exciting stuff: one of the author interviews I did for TBPL Off the Shelf was published in a book! It was the Interview with Amor Towles – it was published in Contemporary American Fiction, Volume 3, which was edited by Harold Bloom. Contemporary American Fiction, Volume 3 is published by Bloom’s Literary Criticism, which is an imprint of Chelsea House Publishers and Infobase Learning.
Now for the less exciting stuff: I heard back from Mythic about “A Friend from the Deep” and they rejected it, too. 😦 Now that it’s been rejected again, I’m going to have to sit down with it and look it over. I suspect I need to give it a good edit before sending it out once again.
So now that that’s out of the way, I also spent some time over the weekend play testing a friend’s game. He made it with RPG Maker (and has been working on it a lot over the last while). The game was super fun, and I got quite into it (and then it ended because it’s only a demo!) 😦 I’m quite excited to see how it develops. 🙂
After playing it though, I wanted to get back into working on some of my RPGs. So I’m going to try to power through both my Sustainably North planning and the Make Your Way story so I can get back to one of my RPGs soon. 🙂
How’s your week been? Anything new and exciting? 🙂
Great to hear about your author interview appearing in a book. A publication is a publication! As for your story, are any of the editors giving you any specific feedback?

The first editor to reject it said it wasn’t a good fit for their publication (I wasn’t sure if it would be), but to keep them in mind for the future. I was really encouraged by that, but unfortunately the other two just gave a form rejection. 😦

So typical. I always wish that they’d give me more details or advice!
