Well, here we are at Thursday once again. Things are looking up. I hope I'm not jinxing myself when I say that.I've nearly finished editing my novel for its next submission attempt. I'm checking through the grammar before submitting it. I expect I'll include a synopsis in the email to them.
I continue to apply for jobs, but having gone to a workshop I learned that Networking is how most jobs are acquired, not applying for them. As such, I've been switching tactics. The hidden job market is accessed through who you know and accounts for most of the job market, apparently. Through a friend I've gotten a meeting set up with a recruiter. The meeting is later today. I hope it goes well.
My severance was more than I expected. I'm hoping I won't have to use all of it to survive and can dump some into RRSPs. We'll see how this all goes. One day at a time.
I'm meeting with my job coach tomorrow morning. We'll see what the thoughts are for me in the coming week with respect to job applications.
Once I've submitted my novel, I will take a day or two off to clean my house and then delve into the next short story as I have another deadline. Oh, I should probably let them know I intend to submit a story for that anthology ;)
Alright, it's time to shower and have lunch. Meeting is at 1pm.
Ciao,
R~
