Had a conversation last night and during the course of it, I discovered just how unorganized and unmotivated I have become with my writing so - I am going to change that. I should be doing better - getting better results by now. I should be polishing more work than I am... So, time to start keeping myself honest - which means that I'll be posting a better progress report that includes more than just submissions sent, rejections and acceptances... Maybe if I refocus - I'll start getting more in the acceptance category... On the downside, I can only do this with prose. Were I to attempt this with my poetry - it would take longer to make my lists than it would to polish a few of them.
