*Gah!! He's so frickin freak adorable I want one!*
Anyway. What I mean is, sometimes its good to get out and meet actual people instead of just making them up or looking them up. And we can even go to fun events to do it, like the writing workshop at the Orem library tomorrow at 11:00, or something cool like that.
How do we find out about these awesome events? Well let me introduce you to a new site I found called CitySpark. Just put in your city or zip code and find all sorts of nearby activities and events going on in a plethora of different categories like literary or visual arts, food and drink, sports (bleh, but whatever floats your boat...). I get a bit stir-crazy, after being cooped up for too long or waiting for submission responses or something for too long, and meeting other people who like to play with or read words too is a good idea.
So maybe give it a whirl, see what's out there. And I'm curious...what is the coolest thing going on in your area right now?

I will have to try CitySparks. Thanks, Sarah.
I was hoping for a Dr. Seuss post. I am taking a writing class and am also meeting with my CP separately from class. Summer camp for the small one so I have time to write and driving the big one to her job is all I do to get out of the house lately.
What a fun site! I love going out to networking events, because I use them to meet people, not to look for a job. Such a good way to get out of the apartment!
how neat!
So I may or may not have spent several hours last night looking up pictures of Benedict Cumberbatch, watching everything I could find that he's in, and reading articles about Benedict Cumberbatch.
I may or may not have a new actor crush.
Super advice. I'm in a workshop this week with teachers. Lots of potential material. Coolest thing in my area coming up is the SCBWI-LA conference in August. It's a total blast.
