So I got a job singing at a church nearby (Timothy Eaton Memorial) - getting paid a surprisingly cushy amount to be section lead in their choir and their baritenor soloist. Kiiiind of ridiculously pleased. It's on a provisionary basis starting in September, but at the same time? They've had this position open for months and have had three auditions ( Read more... )

So yesterday was kind of a wash. I napped and read (a lot of each) but that's about it. I went to the doctor's office to look into what's wrong with my foot, and discovered that it's a problem with my back (and the sciatic nerve being super-sensitive because of my back injury and a couple other things). So that's always fun. But by the time I got ( Read more... )

For a day where my plans were 'play D&D all afternoon', this was actually a really good day as far as my daily checklist was concerned. Managed to knit, draw, write, and read. Came to a couple realizations today during my 750words, and oh man is that a good minddump thing. But now I know what my next plan is for writing!

Okay, so I haven't done a life dump in WAY TOO LONG and I am never sure how much of my life gets on Facebook/Twitter/Tumblr and how much of that any of you read and care about. So I'll do my best to go over what's happened in the past... what, month and a half or so? I don't think I've really posted much since getting back from Cameroon.

I SUBMITTED TO AN AGENT ( Read more... )

I am coming to properly realize that self-esteem and body image problems are not affected nearly as much by knowing that people genuinely find me attractive as I wish they were. I wouldn't say I hate myself (especially since my self-esteem issues are almost entirely tied into body image problems and I'm pretty awesome otherwise), but I really need ( Read more... )

( Cut for excessive whining )

( Ramble ramble ramble #firstworldproblems to the extreme. Mostly pointless, too! )

Huzzah, I like it when I do something and then afterwards go 'Hm, clearly I've grown up a bit.' Matti asked me out again today, and while I've been worried about this because I am entertaining no delusions about being over him, I told him flat out that we can go to dinner as friends, but for now at least that's it. I guess if he can show that he's ( Read more... )

So I just finished editing my first novel.

Time to start looking for agents?
