Good news: I made first cuts on the Regional Artist Grant Project. My interview is in a week and a half. This is the small one – about $900 – but it’s to fund my trip to AWP Chicago in 2009. Wish me luck.

Meantime: Here’s what I’m doing using the stationary recumbent exercise bike I pulled out of my parent’s attic and set up in my loft at home: interval training.

Also: I’m almost done with the NC Fellowship application for writers. That’s for $10,000. It feels the weakest to me out of the bunch, but it can’t hurt to try.

The only thing that hurts is wanting something so bad. But it’s a good hurt—like when you’re getting a massage.
