| I began submitting short stories, both fiction and creative non-fiction, to journals and magazines since January this year (22) with a promise to myself to get serious about getting published. I just received the most encouraging rejection letter — yet. This is the first time I have been invited to skip the waiting period and resubmit. I have about 6 good short stories, and non-fiction shorts, that I will keep submitting for this year. I am going to begin drafting Part Two of my memoir, I don’t have a title yet — but it will mostly take place on the Camino, which I plan on walking again next May. According to my research on how to find a good publisher for the manuscript, the task is easier if I begin by publishing short pieces in recognized literary journals and prestigious magazines like the New Yorker and The Atlantic. |
