so, i didn’t make it into the loft’s mentorship program. i didn’t even make an honorable mention, though NESC did. color me impressed. i thought about beating myself up about this, but then changed my mind. i’m sure i got lots and lots more rejection ahead of me in my career as a writer.

This isn’t a rejection, it an opportunity to explore your own work in greater depthwith your own harshest critic.
You’re so good, it’s got to be because you don’t need the guidance, that’s the only rationalisation I can find. Keep on, we all want some new jodimaterial to read soon!
maybe i’m good here, on iwilldare.com, but perhaps i’m not so good at writing fiction.
I liked the Bowling Alley story, thought it was good enough to be bought. I try to write fiction too, so I know a little of how hard it is to get a story down, but you do it well and should get paid for it i.m.h.o.
Are your stories here on the blog? (if they’re in a really obvious places, sorry. My brain gets much smaller during the summer…it’s the heat.)
nope, i don’t keep them online. there’s a really very early version of one somewhere online. but i like to not publish them online in hopes of getting them publish somewhere else.
i love your fiction. and i hate reading. take that for whatever it’s worth.
