Virtues I Lack

I sent out a couple more submissions to journals today and checked the status on a few I have pending. No response yet. Now, I understand perfectly well how many stories these poor editors have to read through, and given that some of them are my terrible excuse for writing you have to feel sorry for them, and I also know that it's actually usually a good sign if they take a while getting back to me because it usually means they're actually considering me and I know that they need to wait until near the deadline when they'll have almost all of the submissions for that issue in to make the final decisions.
Yes, I do understand these things and I do appreciate it. But I'm just so damn impatient. I don't like having to wait for things and I get easily frustrated when I do have to wait for something. And the longer I have to wait for a response the more I want one.
It's a good thing I didn't have working on my patience issue as my resolution this year, because I would be failing miserably.

Introductions

Why did I create this blog? I'm not entirely sure, because I really doubt that there is anybody out there that might be reading it any time soon. But on the off chance that there is, here it is. Here I will write about my life, my writing, and just whatever is on my mind. I make no promises of coherance or sanity, or even of correct spelling. And on that note, I will now leave to eat a cookie.
