Sent out my first story to thedarkmagazine (mainly because they have a super quick turn around time, and if they do reject, I'll—most likely—know by tomorrow)

A woman walked past my table, chatting animatedly on her phone, laughing at something I couldn't hear. Her wool coat brushed the space where my leg was. There was no sensation of touch, only the faintest whisper of static electricity and the surreal sight of fabric moving through the vacant air where my shin should be. She didn't pause. She didn't shiver. She didn't look down to apologise. To her, the air was empty. I was less than a ghost; I was atmosphere. I was background radiation. I was the breeze that no one notices until it stops.
The theme for #BlueSkyArtShow is #Background,
so here's a snip from one of my stories that will be published next month 🎉
(if you like this snip, please return on 15th April for a link to the post)

I have finally written the most unhinged story ever to send out for an antho call!
(I have no clue if I can send it to any other market if it gets rejected)
#WriteEditSubmit
From one of my horror stories, which is still looking for a home~~ (I won't mind if it ends up in an upside down magazine either)

I check the submission grinder very regularly on who sent out acceptance/rejection, and looking at Flame Tree Publication being more active wrt Horror and Folklore call they had back in September, I'm quite excited to get a response (most likely rejection)

Last day of Feb, I should find a market to send a story to today, just so that I can mention I sent 28 submissions in 28 days. 😅😂

The cover is orange background with textur, and in front there are vines with eye balls (that are the fruits) Text on the book: The Anthropocene Epic An Anthology As Composed by Sera Amoroso The anthology is described as a patchwork of prose, poems, and stories dedicated to the strength and resilience of humanity and their mother, celebrating how humanity and nature interact, destroy and renew each other through the cycles of life and death, grief and joy, helplessness and hope.
So @beyondtstarspress.bsky.social just revealed the cover (on insta) for The Anthropocene Epic — and I love how gorgeous a book cover this is.
One of my stories got selected in this anthology, and can't wait to share more details!

I think I'll have a very little window today, where I get to wait for feedback for multiple videos been sent out a.k.a I can write a story for #FlashFictionFriday (Friday 13 special?) and also edit my vampire story for a call (last day 15th)
#WritingCommunity #WriteEditSubmit #WriteSky #AmWriting
Been a week, and I'm waiting for a bunch of monthly themed 'rejections', but the first mail to hit my inbox is another acceptance for an anthology! (4th for 2026)
I think writing a lot and sending them, might be a good thing 💙📚

I finished (a somewhat polished) first draft last night, that I want to send out for a horror anthology, and there are some lines I really love, but I'm sharing the opening para for #FaveLineFriday.

Got my first rejection for the year.
#AmWriting #WriteEditSubmit
At least the first rejection of December wasn't on day 1, but on Day 7.
#WriteEditSubmit #AmWriting
Oh wow, it's a month filled with rejections, at least all the old pending ones (greater than 60 days) have sent a response.
And since it is a numbers game, just sent out stories to 4 other magazines. Fun times.

Another one...
#WriteEditSubmit #GetRejected #WritersLift #AmWriting #WritingCommunity
New day, new rejection.
Total rejections this month: 8
I sent out my 7th story last night.
#WriteEditSubmit #GetRejected #WritingCommunity #AmWriting #WritersLift
Two more rejections in the last 7 days, have also sent out 3 new stories to online magazines.
(Planning to finish 2 more stories in next 2 days and send out)

#WritingCommunity #IAmWriting #WriteEditSubmit #WritersLift
Busy day, 2 more rejections have made their way to the inbox... I'm planning to rework them both (make them longer) and send them out to find new homes.
#WritingCommunity #IAmWriting #WriteEditSubmit 💙📚
Received a new rejection today, but I've also sent out 3 new stories this week.
(Target is to send more stories out each month than rejections received 🙃 at some point it won't be possible right?)
