Well, lets see--since I started sending out short stories seriously (about a year ago)

Number of subs:
-Number of sales: 1
-Number of "form" rejections: 11
-Number of nice rejections: 2
-Number of very nice rejections: 0 (I assume this means from the editor)
-Number of withdrawals: 2
-Number of rewrite requests: 0
-Number of rewrite requests resulting in sales: 0
-Number of outstanding subs: 2 (one on second base, one still in a slush-pile)
Well, I'm working on a couple more shorts now. One I feel pretty strongly about, but may not send it to the bigger markets. One I can't seem to finish, but it's actually SF, so who knows.)

Essentially, this means that if you take out the 2 stories that I've trunked, I have 4 stories that have gone out for a total of 8 submissions, resulting in one sale, one stalled on second base, one at bat, and one back in the dug-out waiting on a re-write. Two others players on the list, haven't batted yet. Possibly a third.

This does not include novels or agent queries. (I don't want to go there today.)
