    I mentioned the other day that I submitted three of my very short flash pieces that have appeared here on my blog over the last year or so to a podcast called Toasted Cake.

    I got a response back from Tina Connolly (podcastrix).

    Hi Gary! Thanks for sending me these to consider. I’m afraid these won’t quite work for Toasted Cake, but I thought the poem was funny and I hope you’ll send me something again if I have another sub window.

    (and, thanks for the kind words on Toasted Cake :)

    So as far as first rejections go, I’m not displeased. It’s a very good one, actually, encouraging me to submit again in the future.

    Plus . . . now that that’s over with, I’m not dreading that first rejection anymore. :)

    I still want to get into Viable Paradise, though, Universe, if you’re listening.
