I have decided to send out at least one short story each month to the various online publications that are there. The whole point of writing is to get published. And If I want to be considered as a serious writer, then I think its better if my name can come up in a few online searches. Of course, all this considering about a quarter of my stories will be published. Hopefully!
On a less serious note, finished two chapters. Not getting the hang of writing for a younger audience. I mean, what I have written is fine, but it's in too much detail! I list every activity the protagonist carries out, which is not what I seem to remember from the books I read in younger days. The second problem that comes with this is a lots of sentences with he did this, he did that, then he did the other. Irritating, but I dunno a way around. In any case, I will keep writing it and not worry much about the style. Its always easier to skip extra details later, than adding more of them.
Also trying to figure out a thousand word story. Can we do it, I ask myself. Yes, we can, I answer!
