And There Goes My Publisher List
Today I went shopping for a new kitchen faucet (no more black mold!), cooked dinner through the most beautiful evening in the world, and wrote a 15 page short story (longhand).

I also managed to cut my other hand (not as severely as my dominant hand), burn my arm, and send my master tracking list of all my manuscripts to Canada with no return postage.
Perhaps this would be a good day to go to bed early ....
I also sent off a query for one of those difficult-to-place science fiction novellas (I've been writing a string of them and very few publishers take works longer than a short story but shorter than a novel) and began reconstructing my potential publisher tracking list.
I also took the splint off my finger and typed a letter to a friend. On this:

Still to do: revise the story I wrote within the last two weeks and finish reconstructing my where-my-manuscripts are list. Tonight, however, reading.
