A Few May Flowers – May 2021 News

I’m taking care of multiple projects off-line, in real life. As a result, I don’t have much news to share nor have I uploaded many new stories or verses. I’ll get back to writing more soon.

For two of my flash fiction stories submitted to paying literary journals, I’m still waiting to hear back from the editors. (I’ve received a few rejections as well.) Their time frame is about six months after the submission date. Sigh.

I tweeted about my feelings (select image to enlarge):
