So after getting myself geared up to do what I didn’t know how to do, it turns out I missed the deadline for the pirate story I was planning already. EC has an in-house deadline and an outside deadline. It was the in-house deadline that was a month away. The outside deadline was a few days ago…
*sigh*
So it is temporarily on the back burner. Dreamspinner is taking pirate stories and I have plenty of time. I also see now that EC does take unsolicited manunsripts after all, it is just harder to get in that way.
SO…when I am done with my dude ranch story, I will write my pirate story. If it works under 12k words, I will send it to Dreamspinner. If it goes over, I will try EC.
I’ll sell it! *G*
I’ve been really wanting to start in on this dude ranch story anyway, and this will make it happen sooner. YES!
Now, to work!

Oh darn, too bad you missed the deadline! But I know you’ll find a place for your story. You will sell it!
I’m looking forward to reading that pirate story! *g*
Pirate stories are always popular. I’d be very surprised if you didn’t manage to find another market for it.
What a shame you missed the deadline this time. But yes…I’ll sell it! *G*… you will I’m sure! Looking forward to reading it.
Bummer! You’ll sell it and cowboys *whimper* I mean, cowboys….
