A Whirlwind of a Morning

My morning started with my publication of “Avon Calling You an Autumn When You Know You Are Summer” in Milk Candy Review!

Then, I received two rejections… one from a place I have subbed to twice in the last week because I am a glutton for punishment and REALLY thought these stories were perfect for the sub call…. probably going to have to stop submitting to them for a little bit.

Next, I got a message that a YouTube video I was going to participate in will be postponed, which I understood given the circumstances, but was sad all the same.

As I was preparing for my run, I got a message to participate in the Readings on the Pike on August 12 at 7pm Eastern Standard Time - and I was just absolutely floored! There was an opening and the event coordinator, a writer I respect and whose work I love, Hannah Grieco, asked if I was available and I AM! Normally, I couldn’t participate in something like this BECAUSE time zones but I will be on vacation so I will be able to join and I am just so excited!!

I am still reeling from my morning and it’s almost noon and I know it’s happy hour somewhere in the world so I will toast to fate and kismet and synchronicity and enjoy this moment!

Cheers and kanpai all!!
