I've been accepted to Viable Paradise 16.   

When I got the email it was early in the morning and I was so bleary that I couldn't quite focus on the words on my phone.  I had to sit down and read it twice.  Then I had to shove the phone into my poor, mostly asleep, wife's face, while trying not to shout and dance and wake up the whole house, because people are mostly pretty sick at the Chez Greaves and need as much sleep as their bodies will give them.

But....*snoopydance*

Thanks to everyone for the encouragement to push on and apply.  I had a few moments where I really doubted myself there, and some of you (not the least of whom my dear wife, who almost had to slap me the way they do in the movies, you know?) kept me moving forward.

Now, there's a lot of work ahead, and I'm certainly going to end up finding something else to be nervous/anxious about.  But in the meantime: *snoopydance*

Yay!

Your job now: rest and recover--all of you!

Thanks David. I just might go home and pass out at lunch time. I need to hibernate or something.

Thank you.

It's been a never ending season of someone in the house being sick. Kids just love to share (germs). :(

A week dedicated to writing. I think I can get used to that. And yeah, I expect I will enjoy it. Except for the scary bits. But, you know what? Scary bits are often some of the best parts of life.

There will always be something to be anxious about. For now, Snoopydance away!!!

Congratulations from a fellow VP16-er!

I'd join you the Snoopy-dance, but it's too undigni...oh, what the hell.

I had to stop playing the song for now. People at work are looking at me funny. But I'll be playing it again on the ride home. And dancing, to the extent that it's safe to do while driving at least.

Yay! Remind me to tell you about my one-on-one with PNH. (It involved low blood sugar and utter terror and it's funny.)

From: [identity profile] temporus.livejournal.com


Hee. It's infectious isn't it.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Should I remind you before or after I go?

Thanks for the nudges.

I'm not surprised. You're going to have one of those, 'Looking back, I realize this was the turning point for me' events in your writerly life, and since Lady Temporus gets a week of (relative) peace and quiet while you're away, I bet she's thrilled too :P

Woooooo!


Congratulations! You've been working toward this and it's paid off. I'm so happy for you. As of of the three "Wednesday Night" writers from back when, you're the one who's been serios, kept at honing your art and this is well deserved.

So go and enjoy this opportunity you've made. Have a great time, learn a lot, meet folks, and always, always *snoopydance*
