April

April was a little better for writing but far from ideal. I tried my damndest to get something ready for Ellora's Cave but my brain had other ideas.

Disappointment and Consolation

Dark Eden Press is no more. Curiosity and anticipation led to concern when the deadline came and went for the Scottish Nocturnal contest and no winners were announced. So I visited the website and there was a post, a very sad one, stating that the owner's cancer had returned. So she decided to close Dark Eden Press to focus on healing and being with family.

I was totally bummed.

But I have to look on the bright side. I didn't get a rejection. I get more time to tweak my story. I get to submit it to someone else.

Hopefully all will work out and cancer will get its ass kicked.
