My name is Amber and I can't tell you how tall I am, because I don't own a tape measure. I work at a little student bookshop and over at the kickin' Clearfield Review as prose editor. I am a poet and a proser and I love mixing the two definitions. I am currently studying a bachelor of arts and also have a writing diploma tucked into my belt. I also critique at =Trashrock and I think the secret to good writing is the culmination of moments pulled together.

Journal Entry: Fri Jun 19, 2009, 4:59 PM
It doesn't surprise me that my last journal was May 5th and that my rate of journals is so wonky and scattered that its almost laughable.

University has finished for a month. It's kind of nice, I felt like my brain was migrating through the thin, delicate tunnels of my ears, hoping to glimpse a greedy glimpse of the outer world. I'm still waiting on results, but I'm not really worried.

Next sem I'm taking Fiction: Innovation & Ideas, Creative non-fiction, Script and my Literature sub-major. The only one I'm vaguely worried about is Non-fiction [holy crap].

In other lit shenanigans, I have a poem forthcoming in Voiceworks #77 Postscript. You might have seen it on here: The Landscape of Leaving.

Today I also have a poetry reading. A friend is reading my work for me, because I got sick yesterday. Utter shame. But I'm sure she will do great.

Waiting on some publications and priming stories to go out to competitions.
It's a nice lovingly process. You should try it, if you haven't.


ALSO ALSO ALSO... =salshep is holding Flash Fiction Month.

Join in. I will be. Vignette's are a great way to explore creativity and also can lead onto much bigger projects like novels.

Love to all,
and Happy Birthday to you, Jesi, for Sunday.

"My little old man and I fell out;
I'll tell you what 'twas all about,--
I had money and he had none,
And that's the way the noise begun."
Hello :) Sure, but you will have to link me to a piece you would like critiqued?
