I was expecting to have to wait a month to hear back from Sucker Literary Magazine–which is a rather quick turn-around in and of itself–but I’ve already heard back! (I’ll admit it; it was a rejection. But they did give feedback, so I’ve gotten an idea of some things I’m going to change before submitting it elsewhere.) Personal Response Time: 11 days.
As for the other things I’m currently waiting on:
Painted Bride Quarterly (date submitted: January 4th; what submitted: 1 fiction, 1 non-fiction) Official Response Time: unknown
Skirt.com (date submitted: September 3rd; what submitted: 1 non-fiction) Official Response Time: 6-8 weeks
