Friday Submission Challenge

Yes, this is the same challenge as last week. But you didn't do it did you? Why not? You aren't a writer? BS... now... write and submit. It won't hurt a bit.

• Roll the die - http://www.random.org/dice/?num=1
• Go to the post for The Sun magazine.
• Your die roll is the topic you will write for today and have in the post by tomorrow.
• Just do it!!! You are a good writer!! You have something to say, something to offer or you would not be here.
• Leave a comment here if you have completed the challenge.

Friday Submission Challenge

• Go to your word processor files where you keep your short stories or poetry.
• Look at the third, fifth and seventh file. (If one of those was previously published skip to the next file after that number that hasn't been published. If none of those work... just pick one already.)
• Pick the best one.
• Edit it for no more than fifteen minutes for poetry and a half hour for a short story. Set a timer if you need to - http://www.vickiblackwell.com/timer.html
• Send it to one of the five markets from this week.
• Postmark this submission by tomorrow, Saturday, February 7.

The point of this is to let your writing go out into the world and stand on its own. You wrote it originally and you felt it was good enough to hit the Save As button. You will spend a bit of time looking at the piece with fresh eyes, and my guess is you will like what you wrote.

Go on, throw it in the mailbox. And leave a comment here when you have done so.
