Oct. 3rd, 2010 09:02 amCompleted: C by M. Details left anonymous and no review to protect the author. 154 pages, written last year. Verdict: wait for the redraft.
Rejected:
Mirrors by Lucy Warner: I was discussing this with I think Kathi the other day-- genre short stories have it easy because you always have the framework to hang something on. "Real life" short stories have to be interesting without training wheels. This book could really have used some training wheels.
The Demeter Flower by Rochelle Singer: I already own a copy of Herland, thank you.
Page count: 194 (10755 total)
Completed: 30 (14 female authors, 16 male authors)

Next book due: 10/8
