Early this morning, I email-submitted my application for the Viable Paradise<\/a> writer’s workshop. Then I went to sleep, and after breakfast, went to the post office to send a hard copy of my manuscript. Yes, today is the deadline for applying, and yes, I do<\/span> wait until the last minute much…ly. (Adverb? Really? Whatever<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

You may recall that I applied to Clarion<\/a> and Clarion West<\/a> earlier this year, but was not accepted to either. No big–it actually made planning our road trip<\/a> a little easier. VP happens at the end of September, by which time we’ll be settled in Portland (or at least planted in a hotel nearby, looking for an apartment).<\/p>\n

But even if I don’t get into VP, I have an idea for a year-long writing project which I plan to start this fall. More details to come. And, of course, I’ll be doing NaNoWriMo<\/a> in November.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, here’s my new list of things to do, with deadlines:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Vote for Hugo Awards – July 7<\/a><\/li>\n
  2. Apply for Stanford in Entertainment (SIE) Alumni Mentor Program – July 15<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. Help Team Snout finish application for Ghost Patrol Game – July 18<\/a> (solve remaining pre-clues)<\/li>\n
  4. Audition for Stanford Singer’s Showcase – July 20<\/a> (find audio recordings)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
