Feeling brave

I've just sent off 3 stories to 3 pro publications...

Otherwise, I put in 6 hours at my desk today. Unfortunately, my muse took the afternoon off - I heard the door slam behind the dozy cow when she left at precisely 14.30. So I spent the rest of the afternoon editing and tinkering with almost done stories, and then obsessed over whether this story was good enough for that publication etc until I finally told myself to shut up, stop trying to second-guess editors and just do it.

Sometimes it gets very crowded at my keyboard.
