Long due update - all the things
8 years ago
Warning! The following journal may just be a rant!
So, it's certainly been a while since I've made a meaningful journal, and I figure with a bunch of the stuff happening around and to me right now, it's fitting to make a journal to address those things.
Let's start with the bad news: two weeks ago, me and my girlfriend of almost 5 years (2 days off... I felt horrible for it) have broken up on good terms. She's still a good and dear friend of mine, but some of the issues surrounding the relationship (notwithstanding the long distance, aka a collective four hour bus ride there and back) made it difficult to continue on that way. It's been hard, and I've been having emotional outbursts on things that normally wouldn't bother me, but it's alright. I expected this much.
The good news: I'm slated for publication in not one, but two different venues. Unfortunately, neither of them are of the furry persuasion, but it's still a step in the right direction; the first one that's being publish is slated for a limited release (alas, only people who have access to Trent University in Ontario can pick it up, unless I somehow manage to tuck away a few and start shilling them out on the side), and it is a literary anthology of Trent University student writing for which I was both an editor and a contributor. The other venue, also moderated by Trent University, is a peer reviewed journal showcasing undergraduate student research. I submitted an essay back in February about Slow Cinema, a form of art cinema that places a lot of emphasis on the duration of time.
Also, almost done my second year of university. There's just under a month left, and I am super excited to finally have a break from the grind.
Well, this is me, Gadreon/Dammyr, signing off.
Hope you're all doing well :)
