So I found a job today, which should keep me in the black until November and help me save up enough money for World Fantasy 2010.<\/p>\n
The job is at a warehouse for a locally based costuming company.\u00a0 It only runs through October, but that’s perfect because the training for the wilderness job starts the week after.\u00a0 If all goes well, I should be gainfully employed for the rest of the year.<\/p>\n
In a blessed stroke of good fortune, I landed a normal 8 to 5 shift.\u00a0 Graveyard is a good shift for writers, but only if you’re sitting at a desk spending 95% of your time doing nothing.\u00a0 I doubt that’s what this job will be like.<\/p>\n
I don’t know what this new job will do to my writing, but I tend to think it will be positive.\u00a0 At the very least, it’ll give my life some much-needed structure, and at the worst, it’ll make me write as if my life (or livelihood) depended on it.<\/p>\n
In unrelated news, my sister went into labor today.\u00a0 Go Kate!\u00a0 My mom texted everyone in the family–she’s way excited.\u00a0 This will be her second grandchild, and my first nephew.\u00a0 If all goes well, I’ll see him over Thanksgiving.\u00a0 Sarah and I are already planning the road trip down to Texas–it’s going to be awesome!<\/p>\n
Life is very, very good.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
