43

I took a break from office work and went grocery shopping. When I returned, my 43rd acceptance of the year was waiting for me. This one's a romantic/erotic story about finding a modern-day "handsome prince." In my story, the handsome prince is a rich Texas cowboy.

43rd acceptance of the year. That's fantastic.

Michael Bracken said...

Thanks, Cate. My goal is to average at least once acceptance per week. This year I'm a bit ahead of schedule.

So when you hit 52 do you take the rest of the year off?

Michael Bracken said...

Not this year, Graham.

I have to make up for a slow 2009 when I only had 37 acceptances. That quadruple-bypass toward the end of 2008 put a crimp in my productivity for the last four months of that year and resulted in reduced sales in 2009.

Maybe next year I'll take a break when I hit 52 sales and let the rest of y'all have a chance.

Or maybe not.
