Fickle Recommenders

Since a recommender ok'd me for a Writers' Reserve Grant last year, I thought I could hope for the same this year. Alas it didn't turn out to be so. I got some encouraging comments from a couple of them, but no recommendation for a grant. In short, that sucks. However, the project "Bonbons and Bitter Pills" got completed anyway. I've registered the copyright on it so I'm pleased with that. Now if only my editor would get off his duff and do what he's supposed to do: edit my works so I can post them online. All in good time I suppose, but I wish he'd rush it a bit.
