hawkwing_lbI don't have the concentration to work on the novel right now. I'm working on two shorts instead, one tentatively titled 'The Names of God', one without a title which headwormed me on Friday night. Actually it was very early Saturday morning, but still.

General wafflage: I don't know how to write a short story, but I'm trying.
Moaning: I received a rejection from Strange Horizons (http://www.strangehorizons.com): quite an encouraging one, actually. However, this may go somewhat towards explaining why I'm feeling as though I don't know how to write (and why should I bother trying, etc). I understand this will pass in time. However, I wish it would pass now. I don't need any more feelings of inadequacy, thank you very much. Starting university has given me quite enough of them already.
