agilebritThat today was September 30.
And thus the deadline for this quarter's Writers of the Future.
For which I hadn't prepared anything because I'm still waiting to hear back from that one market for the not!Iron Man story, and I wanted to send WotF that because it's one of three on the list that actually pays any-damn-thing for something that length.
Understand that my local post office closes at 6:30. This gave me an hour and a half to print something out that looked halfway decent and get it there.
Which I managed to do. I handwrote the return addresses on the envelopes while it was printing, because it was quicker and also saved me a buttload of aggravation, the way my printer acts with labels.
So. The Faerie Show Fic is off to Writers of the Future. Wish me luck...
