Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
3/8: take two
Last year I had an abstract accepted for a children's literature conference, but I couldn't go because of family scheduling conflicts. I sent in another abstract for this year's conference, and I found out today that it was accepted. So I'm Boston-bound in June. I'm excited, both to write my paper and to have a chance to listen to other people's presentations. It was grey, rainy, and chilly today, so the good news really felt like a bright spot.
My good thing was finding this blog through your postcrossing profile - what a joy. A postcard is on its way to you.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lynne! I'll look forward to your postcard.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations about the conference. What an event ot have to look forward to in a few months! I'm sure the wait will be worth it.
ReplyDeleteCheers~
