Just because it's not nice doesn't mean it's not miraculous.*
So some of y'all may remember how I wrote a novel way back in November and, having done so, I got this promotional code so that I could get a proof copy of my book for free.
Ladies and gentlemen, the squee has arrived!
The book's currently across the Atlantic at my brother's place - I didn't want to chance the free transport being anti-cross-continental, although in retrospect I shouldn't have worried. He's going to send it, though, which is awesome. (Why he didn't send me more pictures, I have no idea. Blame him!)
Also, I chose the cover from one of their templates because I a) didn't have photographs of a sufficient high-quality and b) I wasn't about the mess around with Photoshop to make one. I also smished my last name, because, well, this is the internet.
In other news, I've finished updating my CV and sent it off to my dearest muffin poisoned_sleep who's going to be awesome and point and laugh suggest corrections. Tomorrow, the job hunt commences! There is no squee! Argh!
Tomorrow I also have a doctor's appointment (My face! What's happened to my face?!?) and I really ought to poke at Willy again. I emailed her, but haven't heard back, which makes for a sad Sickle. I also contacted with Gabrielle, suggesting coffee, which she accepted, but no details have been set. I only have her phone number, so I texted her my email so that we could go over the when-and-wheres without sending a thousand texts and getting poor, but I haven't heard from her. So I shall phone. *nods*
