I got some comments below about my prolificity. In response, I’d like to share the one thing that has kept me writing; my submissions tracking excel spreadsheet. Started the day I completed my first story, this thing is a marvel of Excel design. Every time I look at it, I experience extreme joy. Sheet 1 is where I store all my submissions/rejections, as well as every story I’ve ever even considered beginning work on (including my 32 works in progress). Sheet 2 is where I keep a daily log of my writing activity. I honestly think that if I didn’t have this concrete proof of my body of work, I’d have quite long ago.
