Just for the record:
Jun. 4th, 2003 01:00 pmI hate writing clues.
I really hate writing clues.
I really, REALLY f*&!ing hate writing clues.
If I weren't already three months overdue for a submission, I'd be doing something else right now. Anything else. Dropping hammers on my bare toes, if need be.
Sigh. I have got to get a better hobby.
On the other hand, Games just bought a puzzle for the September issue that I wrote wayyyy back in college. I submitted it about ten years ago, heard nothing back, then dug it out of moth balls last year and resubmitted because I've always liked it and thought they might be more open to it now. Let's hear it for delayed gratification! (Of course, this feeds my growing fear that my best stuff is behind me...)
