Oh, shit, I haven't been back here for a while, have I?

Must fix that.

Anyway, I have tonsillitis*, and have just submitted my entry for a one year workshop/writer-in-residence program - a sample short story, and a synopsis of my intended novel.

Feeling a bit loopy. Also starting to fret about my results. I'm stopping myself from looking at my entry again, because I know I'll spot a dozen mistakes.





* had a temperature, cough, sore throat and more pain/fatigue than usual for a week, was bricking it, then woke up one morning like "I KNOW THIS FEEL." Doctor confirmed my suspicions. Typical fucking me, managing to catch a different disease during a global pandemic.

Hi! I hope you feel better soon!
And also a good luck with the writer in residence program! I hope you get in! (and tell us more about it :D)

[spindle_ella]

Thank you!

The idea is that I should have my novel finished by the end of the year, ready to meet with the agents/editors attached to the programme. In the meantime I'll be involved in community outreach sessions through a local museum.

I feel like I'm gonna either be disappointed or terrified, lol.

Oh, man, I'm glad it's just tonsillitis. Damn those tonsils, scaring the crap out of you! I hope you're feeling better soon.

[spindle_ella]

Thank you! I've never been more relieved to have it, honestly.

In these times, it should be a relief that it's "only" tonsillitis.

:D

Feel better soon!

It's a new experience: being relieved to feel like I'm deep-throating a cactus. XD

Thank you!
