Fifth Six Months Statistics (Only One Month Late!)

But still late....

From November 2014 through April 2015, I only finished two new stories, and they were both drabbles, so only 100 words apiece.  Not too productive on the short fiction front, but I've been working on other projects....  I only submitted twelve times and to only seven markets (three times to Daily Science Fiction, twice each to Apex Magazine, Flash Fiction Online, and SpeckLit, and one each to Devilfish review, Wisdom Crieth Without, and Terraform).  Not too impressive, but I had a lot of other things going on, other projects, personal matters, excuses....  The results weren't too impressive either.  Though I did have the two acceptances to SpeckLit, I had eight form rejections, one never responded (magazine closed), and one is still pending.  I got another rejection on a previous submission and another never responded as well.  The average response time for the fifth six months was 30 days.

My Submission Plus-Minus was 0.38.  Not bad considering everything else.  That makes my lifetime Plus-Minus -1.41, reflecting six acceptances out of 7.41 expected.  Progress....
