Slow email

my email has been misbehaving lately.

I closed out with 2083 words for yesterday and 35,582 words on the story. I think I’m going to go with my original idea of 140k and work from there. I’ll trim it from there as I go along.

Earlier after midnight I wrote RJS an email First time I ever emailed a pro SF author and he replied right back. I answered him but I’m not expecting another replay anytime soon. I just got lucky. Not that he’ll ever visit my website or anything. These people are much to busy working on their own material. I’m not expecting a reply back.     

I received my 2nd email back from RJS. That’s what I like about this guy he doesn’t talk down to anyone and write science fiction I like to read. I sent one finale email and the last one with the question I should have asked from the beginning

‘Have you ever rejected a work only to find the author published the same work later on with the big three.” something to that effect.

I couldn’t sleep around 4:30am so I decided to get up and write until I got at least +1,000 words and I wrote just over. So if I don’t write anything this afternoon and the rest of the day, then at least I’d have my mon in the bank but I want to go on and blog this and work again on “F”. I’m in the beginning of the middle.20/40/20.
