Well, it's done. The application I mean. Went in the post this morning, though it could be some months before I hear anything. Am I nervous? Of course not - (that's writerspeak for 'you bet I'm nervous' by the way). Only 11 days ago I knew next to nothing about University College, Falmouth and now I can't get it off my mind. I just love it when life takes these sudden twists. It seems to reflect my writing somehow, like when the story starts to tell itself.
Am I a writer? Well yes, I'd say so, been one for a few years actually. Okay, unpublished at the moment I'll admit, but it's just a matter of time. Now ask me another...
Will this course change my life, my ambitions, my dreams? Without a doubt. I've done a fair bit of critiquing over the past few years, maybe I'll take a look down that road, or lecturing or... well who knows, I'm sure I don't. The only thing I can say for sure is that my life just changed, it got exciting again.
As if nature is reflecting my mood the sky over Baildon is clear and blue this afternoon. The sun is shining, the snow is melting and I'm on the first stage of a journey.
