When the Universe Smiles
I have this sense that, particularly for artists, sometimes the universe will give you hints about what you should be doing with your life, you know? Like, if you've been banging your head against some door forever and the universe keeps giving you these opportunities at another, like, maybe you should follow those opportunities.
Well, you know how the Loft "cancelled" me over my manuscript critique?
Guess who suddenly has not one, but TWO new critique jobs.
THIS GIRL!
So, I feel very VALIDATED by the universe. True, one of the jobs is with someone I have known in the science fiction community forever and who knows about the Loft malarky, but the other is a Complete STRANGER. The universe seems to be saying, "Stop beating yourself up about all of this. I know you're a good critiquer--here, have a couple of jobs immediately so you don't lose heart."
Thank you, universe! I needed this!
