Hopeful

Well, just finished writing up my short piece on the interview I had with the three authors,  I could probably spend a lot more time on it and make it a piece on literacy or something.  I would  really love a paper to pick it up. Thing is the rejection makes it hard to be motivated to want to put so much effort in...bit of a double edged sword. no good if i don't. At the moment it's just a piece on hidden fun things to do in Calgary and a light write up of the interviews and what the Word FEst had to offer. It was exciting to actually meet them and feel important and like a somebody. I don't mean to sound arrogant, it was just exciting cos this sort of break doesn't happen much for me anyways. The icing on the cake would be to get it published. I could always try again when I have fine tuned it into something bigger.

Other than that, I am getting ready to leave Calgary. Only like 17 days or so left which is going to fly by. Think I will just hostel and hotel it when in Halifax cos I plan to go to the UK and a few people have offered to let me stay which is nice and will save me costs in that sense. Seems silly not to take up the opportunity while I am so  close.
