I wrote a really good story today. A short one, just over 500 wds.
I don't always think my stories, long or short, are really good. Sometimes I read them after they're published and wince. But for now I think this one is great. I love this story. I would marry this story. I would kiss this story in a tree....
I tricked myself into writing it, actually. After it's published somewhere, hopefully online, I'll say more about how it came to be....
Switch of subject: I was just reading Matt's post where he wonders aloud what lit mags, print or online, are indispensible. Blake responded w/ a pretty nice list. He mentioned Unsaid, a print mag whose website I've been poking around lately because I had some shorts accepted there. Did you realize -- I didn't -- that the whole Unsaid catalogue is available online? I was looking through the last issue: Joanna Howard, Brian Evenson, Peter Markus, Robert Lopez, Cooper Esteban, Deb Olin Unferth....
I got fairly excited. And by fairly I mean rabidly.

But seriously, congrats on the new story-- That's an amazing feeling when you know you've just nailed it. I can't wait to read it.
