My program starts in May, so I'm trying to arrange a trip first. I'm hoping Germany, but maybe North Carolina or Newfoundland if that won't work... It depends on the people I could potentially stay with.
I don't post much of my writing online and I haven't written a play since grade 9 which is why I feel I need a refresher... that's, OMG, 12 years ago... I would have had to be a serious geek to have been posting stuff back then. Which I'm not, although I enjoy serious geeks when they can converse in regular English rather than lingo. Poetry is what I am most successful at so far, which is unfortunate in one sense since it is probably the LEAST likely to pay the bills. Anyway, here's my one published poem (I mean other than me posting on a blog or something...) if you are interested http://www.bywords.ca/july2008/index.php?p=1 . The play experience was being forced to be in them in elementary school on a semi-regular basis, which at least gives me an idea of how things really could be arranged on stage...
I'd probably be better off sticking with something else. Hell, pretty much every author except perhaps J.K. Rowling and Nora Roberts probably would be, but I want to give it a go and work part-time in the publishing industry before moving on to be a writer/literary agent. That's why I chose English, of all things.
