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, 3:59 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.
