I was unblocked yesterday. I'd been blocked for several weeks, not for lack of ideas, but for something in real life that was weighing me down and blotting out everything else. However, although the threatened cloud hasn't quite gone away, it's been lessened a lot and things are a little brighter. Yeah - I know - cryptic, but I don't like to dump RL on here, that's not what my LJ is FOR.

Suddenly yesterday the dam broke and I wrote over 1000 words. Nothing for you guys bowing under the weight of NaNo, I know, but for me who hasn't even been able to finish a smutty short story that only needs to sex scene to have it done, this is progress with a P.

Does anyone in my acquaintance know what I can do with a longish story? It's 8K and (currently) doesn't have any sex in it, although it deals with m/m themes. It was written for Outlook Arizona who turned it down, and I've tried Blithe Quarterly and they didn't want it. I'd really appreciate any ideas you guys might have. If anyone wants to see it, just bellow. I've just queried Speciality Publications to see if Men or Freshmen might want it (I'd need to add sex if they do) as a serial, but we'll see what they say. Would it be worth approaching an epublisher?

Good idea, I think I'll hang on to it, perhaps fiddle with it a bit. Thanks! and... ooo.. (peers over your shoulder in a nosy fashion..)
