Swings and Roundabouts

Today has been a day of good news and bad news. On the negative side, I received two rejections for stories I’d sent out to magazines. But on the positive side, I mowed the lawns, attended my daughters’ school sports day, and landed a part-time job with a non-profit organisation offering specialist services to pre-school children with additional needs. The part-time job sounds like it will be interesting and rewarding, and it will give me the financial breathing space I need to keep writing and freelancing. And as for the two rejected stories? Don’t worry about them – tomorrow I will submit them to new markets.

    Bummer about the stories, but I’m glad you got the job. Financial security is good. (and so is mowing the lawns :) )
