THE END.
I stuck an END at the bottom of the Baen story today. It came in at not quite 8400 words, which means I will need to whack 5% of out it in post. I scribbled 3700 words on the day, which may be some kind of record for me, and I did all of it in the car on the drive home from Colorado.
I still need a name for my [demon] and also one for the [McGuffin]. I will probably do that tomorrow.
My inboxes are cleared. That was fun. But, hey, only one rejection over the weekend. I'll flip that one to F&SF.
Waiting to hear back from my RP partner for the Tattoo Story, and then I can edit that and ship it off. I'll run the Baen story through a couple of edits before letting anyone see it, because it's rough right now. Once it's been judged I'll have more to say about it, but I don't want to put any tells where Larry can see them because it's supposed to be Sekrit.
But. I am making progress. It looks like I'll hit both deadlines. Yaaay.
