Belated Writing Diary: September 7, 2004
Yes, I know it’s actually September 8, but I posted this last night, except, for some reason, Blogger choked on it and it never appeared.
So, briefly: reworked “Threads,” the story I wrote based on the play I wrote for Globe Theatre‘s On the Line event a couple of years ago, and wrote my science column on panspermia (see below).
Today I’m sending “Threads” and “Memory Jam” off to Realms of Fantasy and Fantasy and Science Fiction, respectively, thus beginning the possibly long and entirely unrewarding process of trying to sell them.
Hope springs eternal…
