I'm starting to get to be a rejection-junkie.
Okay, so by that I mean "sending-out-poems" junkie, but that's not snappy, and a "submission junkie" sounds all sorts of wrong.

I'm sure a hit of coffee beforehand doesn't help minimize the high, either, but I think there's real fun in picking out the next magazine to inflict my poetry on, especially since I have no investment in seeing it accepted, really.
It's like picking a college, only short-term and cheaper!
Wait. None of you were college-admission-materials junkies, were you? No, that was just me...

PS: Go Read Something Good. Like The King of Attolia.

If you mean, do you order hundreds of prospecti, despite the fact that you know only ten or so places do your course, and you rip them open excitedly and pour over them and pile them up in the corner and smell the ones you like the look of...

No, of course not, I've never done anything like that.

I'm so relieved. ^_^

What is your icon quote? Verra cute...

It's a mistful quote. :D

I have this one too.

(They look a bit... dirty, don't they? I made them on Paint and I thin they need cleaning up a tad)

They're both adorable.
The second one makes the whole thing funny...
