To be honest, my writing has suffered of late. I've had a few articles appear here and there and a few stories a while ago but nothing substantial in terms of fiction. So I message a US mag who accepted a story of mine last year but hasn't done anything with it, and they say YES, it will be published, it's just taking longer than anyone expected. WIN!!! Simultaneously another publisher has been in touch and have been working through another story with me. DOUBLE WIN!!! Then I get notification that yet another story is on a shortlist and will be decided shortly. TRIPLE WIN!!!!!! All without having written a word (of new fiction) in the past three months. It just goes to show that patience in writing is an important part of the process, and just because you don't have a lot out there at any given time, doesn't mean nothing's happening.
