Three Flash Submissions

Fired off three subs last night. Two to Flashshot (should hear back from them fairly soon, although I'm not that hopeful. The pieces didn't seem a great fit for them, or for anywhere I could find.)

The third went to Flash Me. I had to send it twice as I forgot the attachment first time around (silly boy). Hopefully they'll just shrug it off and read the proper one. I'm expecting a confirmation email from them by tomorrow.

Both places required me to write a biography. Which is surprisingly difficult when you haven't done anything. I eventually came up with

Brief Bio: Simon Searle is a young British author of all manner of speculative fiction. His flash fiction has previously appeared on flashshot. At the current rate of word count per published story increasing by 200 words every nine months, he expects to burst onto bestseller lists sometime in the twenty-fourth century.

And for the other one

BIO: Simon Searle is a young British author with big dreams and small plots

Which seemed like the best I could do at the time. Back to more waiting, I suppose (although I'm sort of worried about some of my other pending submissions. Those that requested .doc format might not be able to open some of the files, as stupid word 2007 saves in .docx for some reason. Bloody Micrsoft.
