Getting Closer

Received two short story rejections this week from major genre markets, both of them containing some positives.

From one,

There's some good stuff here, but ultimately it just didn't quite work for me.

and from another,

Almost works, but doesn't quite make it.

On the plus side, neither of these rejections were form letters and both lead me to believe I'm on the right track. Something is working with each of these stories, but each also contains something that's not quite there yet.

Small steps, but steps that are moving forward.

Ever forward. Getting actual non-form-letter feedback is great.
