Cashing a Check
Just a note. I cashed a check — payment for writing — yesterday. First time I’ve done that since the magazine I worked for got taken over by its new owner (thus putting me and the rest of its former publications staff out of work). Feels good. I’ve been commissioned for two more articles immediately and an indefinite number after that.
It’s not fiction, though — so I still have a way to go.
OH, how I want to make some mean comment about you finally getting paid in something other than coins, but I just can’t dredge up the energy to make it
sufficiently snarky, so I’ll just say Woot-Woot!
