Followed a lead

I submitted something I wrote somewhere. I would have liked to send it through the postal mail as well and time the email to arrive a day or two later. I would have also liked to send it on expensive paper and from a laser printer, etc, etc. I just e-mailed it because that's what they say to do. I prefer to do things more elaborately. That worked for me in the past, even hand-delivering things at times, but I can't do that without my own computer and a better home situation, so I did this. I hope it works because my way worked better. I would even time things to arrive at a certain day within the production cycle of the magazine. And I was successful. It shouldn't come down to stuff like that but it did. Now I provide excellent content and I email it like they say but . . .

I have been trying to follow up on recent past submissions to get some feedback because they are really good but they just seem to fall into a black hole. I worked on that. I don't know what is going on.

I did work on it. I have more I want to do. It feels bad that it all might come down to some very peripheral issues and not the value of the content. The readers lose out. It feels bad that I write so well but nobody who could publish me seems to care. It's like they are all zombies.
