I did a career presentation at my local high school about careers in the arts and thought I'd share it in case it's helpful.

Have an article under contract that I wrote, and then one I had a request for. Wrote both, and while I love them both, the second one nearly brought me to tears because I was feeling it so hard. So now it's just a matter of how they hit with the editors. Regardless, though, I am just feeling so happy and at peace. The last few months have been really stressful and then report writing is a whole other thing, and each time I get through it, I feel born anew. Hope you're all having a wonderful week and the muse is kind and full of joy!!!!!!!

Have been under pressure as a teacher with introducing two new text response units at the same time, so had to create teaching resources, and corrections and reports. Have dog paddled my way out of this whirlpool and can now turn my attention to my writing world again.

This week was hoping to do some writing, but no, it’s ending up being a week of promotion.
June is my birthday month so I decided to do a big promotion push for all my books and will be discounting my whole catalogue to 0.99 cents. So, things I have been doing for this:
Edited and approved another article for ABC Education, and of course pitched another idea. I still have an article to write for The Age that I haven’t been able to focus on, so this weekend. I’ve got a gig as judge @insightpublications in the 2024 Insight Creative Writing competition for the year 8 year level with So excited about reading writing from young writers. This week's writing update is a bit late as I've had some personal things going on that have drained me a bit.
I had my article published with ABC Education drop and am really proud of the work that went into it. This one was a bit tricky because I got really sick while writing it and it got a bit off track, so had to dig deep in terms of research to write it. https://www.abc.net.au/education/it-is-important-for-students-to-develop-their-handwriting-skills/103786028 My audiobook Hollywood Dreams was published. This was in partnership with Twin Tales Publishing and through a royalty share arrangement so it was a new experience. As it sells, royalties will be split between the narrators, publisher and myself as author. It's always a thrill to add another book to my backlist so I've been undertaking some promotion in creating reels and uploading extracts. https://www.amrapajalic.com/hollywood-dreams.html I proofread my novella that is a prequel to my new mystery series and was playing around with covers and taglines and blurbs. I was hoping that these books would be well underway with publication, but have had a rocky start to the year so things are much slower. I worked on my PhD and have started a new introduction. I completed a draft during summer school holidays, but haven't nailed the question and the critique. So I'm developing a new line of inquiry and when I started reading and writing, three hours passed in a blur. I have monthly meetings with my supervisors, which are so, so important because they give me a deadline to work toward and have something to submit. I've also been editing a novel for another author. I'm always looking for opportunities to expand my side hustle. Editing is turning out to be a lot more time intensive than I thought, so I think this will be my first and last job. One of my joys in mid-life is discovering a love of gardening and plants. Over the past few years I have really embraced having green things and managed to keep most of them alive. When we moved to my current house I worked on my courtyard hedge on a regular basis, and then my elderly cat began going outside and using it for her business. She was frail and ill, and it seemed more important to give her the space. When she passed away I wanted to re-claim and re-vamp, and here it is. I cleaned everything out, trimmed hedges, planted new plants, bought these long sticks from temu and the coloured pots that are hanging off the fence and spent the past few weeks getting it spick and span. Now, every morning as I sit at my kitchen table and look outside into the courtyard, I feel so joyous and happy. And I'm so excited to see how it transforms further as all my plants bloom and grow. |
