I’ve been trying to write short stories and while I’m thinking at the moment of getting a blog to put them on, I’m wondering what else is out there where I could get them in front of eyeballs without getting tons of spammers trying to sell me services related to writing fiction.
Yeah, post away and shout-out to those of us that asked you to. I don't check my notifications daily, but when I come back and see your shout-out, I'll definitely read your work.
Met my summer interns over a coffee. Always four, they are; an all-purpose nerd (my man!), a girl that'll end up running analyst team in ten years, a hard-charger that found a loophole that allowed applying as a freshman who won't know the half of what's going on, and a dude who ought to have picked a different major BuT pHySiCs EaRn GoOd. Well, OK, not quite, but they largely fit those stereotypes without squinting or mental gymnastics, just by relative measures. And mr Freshman has a previous B.Eng in electrical engineering, but you gotta roll for the joke to work. Dunno why they make the guy go through internships, though, he part-times in one of those CAD-driven monstrosities but it's not like admin ever made sense to non-admin people.
Ex called, started doing emotionally manipulative bullshit proclaiming regret, I blocked her number because I've been through that already enough times to know better. Rebounded. Still feel like shit, but it'd be weird if I didn't. Going back to living life at 2,5 speed is fun especially now that I know the difference between being in a detached rush of things and a manic phase.
You know, it'd be interesting if you wrote why you're not writing. Checkmate, bitches! :]
I am at that part of the year where I have to produce a lot of work (in the form of two whole-of-institution reports) in time to meet a very significant deadline. You would think, after almost nine years of working for my current employer, that I would have broken this habit of procrastination by now.
