I recently sent my first submission, a short (PARSEC) to hopefully "get credits" for when I start subbing my novels. There was a group of five or six of us from a critique site that subbed, and everyone else in the group already got their responses.
So, what's the first thing that comes to my mind? The wife didn't send it like she said she would. Damn her! She doesn't want me to be happy! She doesn't...Oh, wait, went on the site today and saw that "if you sent your submission snail mail instead of e-mail, you may not have reveived your response yet.
Now, I swear that wasn't on the site Friday. All it said was that every response had been sent out. Nevertheless, it scares me a little that conspiracy theories are the first thing that comes to my mind as I pace here like a caged lion awaitng my reply. WTF? It's a silly short, maybe the last one I'll write. And I need a damn sedative.
Is this how it was for everyone else?
