Dear self: Learn to read.
The techno-joy it takes to get a new electronic device, take the instructions, and THROW THEM OUT THE WINDOW!! apparently also transfers to online FAQs, at least in my case.
I just checked the U.S. Copyright Office FAQ to remind myself of the processing times and spotted this addendum to the times that I hadn't noticed before:
Whatever time is needed to issue a certificate, the effective date of registration is the day the Copyright Office receives a complete submission in acceptable form. You do not need to wait for a certificate to proceed with publication.
... er, I don't?
So basically all I'm waiting for is to get shot down by the Mystery Option Behind Door Number Three and I could self-publish The Monsters of Moosic?
(Not that I want to get shot down by the Mystery Option. Seriously, I wouldn't have even gone along with the Mystery Option if it weren't that I've had giddy daydreams about doing exactly fucking THAT with my stories since waaaaaay back when, and I'd be an idiot not to try given the opportunity, and I'm perfectly realistic and fine about the whole thing. STILL.)
