I am amused to see on Duotrope that as of today, Apex started sending out responses to writers who've been waiting even longer than I have. I like to think that Cat Valente (is she still editor for Apex?) happened upon my yesterday's post, was consumed with guilt for leaving poor me hanging so long--or perhaps was filled with fury that I called her out publicly--and went into her files to reject me. Ha! You still didn't get mine! Mine's the one with vampires in it, which is why I knew full well going in that it would be rejected, and now a year later I'm still waaaaiting.
But I kid Ms. Valente.
I am happy to report that I have FINISHED THE DAMN WEREDEER EDITS. I sent the file off to my editor, who is way more patient with me than I am with, oh, you know, magazine editors who don't respond as soon as I think they should. I hereby swear most solemnly that I will never again be late with edits.
I guess I should get to work on those edits for Blood and Ashes, huh?

Wow, it's like you're making a New Year's resolution in September. Get back to those edits!
*cracks knuckles* I'm on it!
I believe Apex let a lot of stories go in the transition between editors. Lynne Thomas is the editor now, or soon will be.
Ah, that explains it. I still haven't received my rejection, though. Even tempting fate here hasn't helped!
