Today is a day for mustering courage in applying for writing jobs…which requires more writing. There’s only one type of tea I turn to when I need a jolt, but not a “big” jolt – oolong. As if by serentipi"tea", my Canton Tea Club delivery arrived.
Granted, I’d already reviewed it and done a write up for this offering, but it was one I couldn’t help tearing open again. It was almost as perfect as her older sister. That and it was as tart and buttery as I remembered the first time.
If you would like to learn more (as well as see my personal history with Dan Congs), go here: http://www.cantonteaco.com/blog/2012/10/canton-tea-club-week-3-xing-ren-dan-cong/
In the meantime, I’ve got a rant about steampunk to write, and jobs to apply for.
Yay.
Update: The steampunk blog in question, if you want: http://www.lazyliteratus.com/1834
I should…uh…probably apply for jobs now.

Much courage to you! (My perpetual whine is that it’s not fair being a writer in a world that no longer reads.)
Good luck with the job applications :) I believe that writers are important people even in this day and age, if you can write something that inspires even just one person then it’s all been worth while.
@gmathis – Actually, that’s not quite true. Children these days are reading at a far greater level that most adults over 30. Problem is, I don’t know how to write for young adults…er…yet.
@ch3rryprinc3ss – Thankee, dear. I believe so as well. Or at least, I have to believe it for my own sanity. Heh.
Wishing you all the best on the hunt!
Thank ya, dear.
Good point. Thanks to a librarian buddy, I’m rediscovering YA literature and enjoying it immensely.
@Gmathis – Anything by John Green is magical.
