I resubmitted just now to change the title. I hope that doesn't mess things up.

I have been defeated and deflated all week with my (Fairytale/defeatism/orphan) prompts, but suddenly have an idea.

Phew! First submission in. I still definitely need to make some edits, but I figured I'd at least put one submission in as-is because one never knows LOL Now for sleeps and taking my eyeballs away from the story for a while!

I'm on around 2000 words, but only two thirds of the way through my story! I need to do some serious editing. 

Really glad today is a public holiday* here in Australia, as it gives me some extra time to work on my story.

*Not saying it's right for the 26th of January to be a public holiday (as I'm aware it's a date that brings hurt to a lot of people), but simply that I'm glad for the extra time that I don't have to spend at work.

I was so busy with work the past two weeks I forgot about this until I opened my non-work email and account and

OOOOOOOOOOOOOH! I got horror! That's a new one for me. And I am SO down for this. I'm actually doing research because I don't read or watch horror. I've never compiled notes for one of these before.

3 days to go! I can do this. Yep.

Yep.

Tonight the magic finally happened... for me that is when the mess off jumbled words I spewed out Saturday have finally rearranged themselves into an actual story with heart and plot and characters I am rooting for.  Now the fun of improving metaphors, adding humour and tightening descriptions... for me the hardest part is done!

Dear me, really?

That is truly impressive. Did you have beta reads or you just submit to get something submitted??

Shocked

Was up at 4:30am (UK Time), it's now 7am and I've finally submitted. 

I'm really looking forward to reading the stories!
