Went to the launch, which was lovely. I got thanked *twice* for designing the website (I did the design, mind you, not the programming — I haven’t the foggiest idea how to do all of that crap. I can Dreamweave, but nothing fancier…). Was happy that they were happy.
Before the thank-fest began, one of the professors asked if I’d do the graphic design for a collection of essays he’s editing. More paid work! I get to make pretty pictures, play with fonts, and satiate my anal-retentive need for proper page layouts — and I will get paid to do it! Yeeeeeeah!
PLUS, I’ve been given a copy of David Malouf’s collected stories to review for the journal — and the best part (apart from reading the book) is that the review isn’t due until March. Score.
The universe is throwing money at you! Yay universe! :-)x
Three cheers for the universe! π
Indeed – you should send a ‘thank you card’ π
I really should, shouldn’t I? It would be the height of rudeness not to. And I wouldn’t want to piss the universe off…
Perhaps it’d like a kindergarten-style card? Handmade is always a nice touch… π
*gets scissors, coloured construction paper, sparkly glue, scented markers, and happy-face stickers*
Oooooh, and crayons! And you must write with lots of backward ‘r’.
Of course! How could I have forgotten crayons?!?! *slaps forehead, getting glue and sparkles everywhere in the process*
I know have a vision of you with a shiny gold star embedded in your forehead.
Hee hee! π
