OWW – my achievements and stuff
I joined OWW a while ago, and got briefly disappointed, made a friend who died, RIP Gary… and went back to it because I found that it is a good forum to have your stories critiqued. I have been writing some different stuff of late to see how successful it is in ASIM, WOTF and others, and I am pleased to say that my style is becoming more accepted.
Today, I FInally did my 150TH critique and earned my second level (a 2 birds symbol). Shame my ASIM crits don’t count for anything… but I have a piece in there that is in the collective for consideration, and we’ll see how it goes. If it doesn’t get in, then I’ll send it on – it’s good (no it is!!) and someone will take it – its made the this is alright category and got a good score. I am really hoping that they pick it up, because I have wanted to be published in ASIM for ever!! and it would be a dream come true.
Got to dust off my ETHAN story soon, in amongst TW0 Uni courses, I intend to resub my work to the forum for some comment / polishing and finalise it once and for all.
It feels right.
In the mean while, ASIM crits and stuff is going well, book reviewing is going well too, and with a David Conyers story from Jupiter to review for the UK mag soon, and did I say that I have been raise to the 2 birds level at OWW – quite a feat!!!
