I've been so focused on longer work the last couple of years it takes real effort a lot of the time to write at short length. I miss it. But I console myself with the thought of huge amounts of Cateness being written instead. So there's a lot of win.Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10858899715313108981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1040257926855761879.post-80345431148289113542011-05-12T01:54:34.702+01:002011-05-12T01:54:34.702+01:00If you and short story month come to blows, I know...If you and short story month come to blows, I know a good mediator.Aaron Polsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15173267932358617304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1040257926855761879.post-45550220388796846452011-05-12T01:08:06.492+01:002011-05-12T01:08:06.492+01:00You're doing great!

I don't know why, seeing as that short story month has the possibility of being so much less demanding. My short form needs work I suppose. Good luck with your goals for the month!
