Things and Things and Things...

Fri Jul 13, 2007, 7:46 AM

Listening to: Sparks - Barbecutie

Just some caretaking for those of you interested, which I think is no one, because I'm a bit boring:

Things I Should Be Doing but Am Not Doing:

1. Writing a CV.
2. Using aforementioned CV to apply for jobs.
3. Unpacking.
4. Repacking because I'm about to move house.
5. Digesting. My tummy hurts and I can't cook.

Good Things That Happened Lately:

1. Graduated with a good mark.
2. Getting one of my short stories published.
3. Number 2 is so good I'm going to have to repeated it in caps lock:

GETTING ONE OF MY SHORT STORIES PUBLISHED!

4. Wore nice shoes to the cinema last night.

I'm so, so happy about getting the story published. It shall be in BRAND magazine issue 1 if anyone's interested, but yes. I'm happy.

The real world is a scary place, but these days I think I'm ready for a challange. I'm also ready to go on some adventures. Anyone care to join me? We can wear pirate hats and skip on the grass.

Congratulations about the short story! I wish I could. What story? Where was it published?

Thank you! It's an updated version of "To Love Me Completely", under a different title. It's in the first issue of BRAND magazine, though I don't have my copy yet.

Ah, cool. So this is a new magazine?

Yeah. And I for one hope it lasts beyond the first issue. It's a really cool concept, it's kind of left-field writing, challanging thematically and formally...so I'm not sure how I got accepted, but I'm not complaining.

That's really cool. I'll have to look into that magazine.
