Hello. Felt the need to write another of these today, for some reason. I think I'm the only one that reads these journals that I write, but I do like looking back on them. So the job situation is more or less sorted out (in that I have one). It's stressful and makes my head feel more or less like it's been jumbled by an eggbeater for several hours a day. Not quite sure how to get around that one. I joined and worked for a satire magazine. They liked my work enough that they published one of my essays in their book. Which was nice. Then they published a racist joke (not intentionally, but ignorance followed by arrogance is basically just as bad as out and out hate). Half of the editorial staff quit when the director didn't take appropriate action.

So I sent it off to a real live agent yesterday. An actual, breathing, literary professional has my book on their desk. Ok, not my book but what is probably a decent query letter and a synopsis that took me 12 hours to get right, and the first 10 pages of the book. I got a confirmation email from her office. Just seeing it made me nearly throw up over my keyboard. I feel like I look outwardly pretty calm, though. Not sure why this makes me as emotional as it does. Freud sa
