I got into the Alpha Writing Workshop in Pittsburgh PA, so I'll be going there at the middle to the end of July, the 15th-25th. The workshop is with Tamora Pierce (amongst others) and she's been my favorite author since I was about nine! At the end of the workshop, we'll be going to a sci fi and fantasy conference called Confluence, which is a really big and awesome one. Bringing me to my next news-- I also entered a story in a writing contest for the conference. I haven't heard back yet, but if that fits their bill, then I'll not only be attending the conference, but I'll also have a story in the program book!
So for the summer, I not only have that: I'll probably have some sort of orientation and registration at whatever college I end up going to (it's looking like Ithaca at the moment), I'll be visiting Becky (or I better be!), I'll be visiting Paul (for a weekend, maybe, if I ever actually ask), I'll be finishing a novel (because I need it before I go to any writing conferences) and et cetera. Goodbye, summer. I shall miss thee. *dies*
