Just when I was starting to think that I was never going to get a look in, I landed myself my first job interview this week *insert excited fangirl type scream here*

It’s for a charter school in the LA area, and I’m super excited. I’ve been researching the school and I think it’s a place I’d be super happy.

Now all I need to do is nail the first round interview. Wish me luck, blogosphere!

About two months ago, I sent out a stack of query packets to literary agents in the hope that someone would think Empathy Underground was worth representation. So far, I’ve had no takers, so I’m starting again. Re-writing the query letter, scouring the Internet for possible suitable candidates, and mentally preparing myself for the cohort of rejections that seems to accompany such a process.

I knew it was going to be tough – all published authors tell you that it is – but still, its frustrating nonetheless.

Who knows … maybe I’m not as good as writing as I thought I was?!
