Last night was pretty much an existential mess for me, because I tried writing the counter-Victorientalism article for Allegra (of Steampunk Magazine) and I just ended up so goddamn angry. I left a post at Steampunk Empire that was filled of contempt, but people seemed to not mind it. Then I bitched and whined to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dmp who was her usual saintly self. After talking to her, I felt much better, and got a much better grip on how to write the article, although it won't be for a while since I feel the need to do some research. Apparently I like to make life difficult for myself.
Today, was shite. I was all prepped to go out and find a job, was gonna pop by the Atlantica to ask if they had any minimum wage jobs and then down to Supertemp, and .... I couldn't. I sort of hyperventilated at the idea. It wasn't fun.
However, I did get started on the counter-Victorientalism article and an A:TLA essay. Also, Jeff Vandermeer emailed asking if I would like to contribute 200 words for the question, "What do you expect in the future of steampunk?" for the Steampunk Reloaded anthology. Mike Perschon was supposed to write The Future of Steampunk article, but it wasn't quite what they were looking for.dmp has been asked too! World of win, here we come!
Speaking of emails, McMaster University emailed me an offer of admission. I'm still a bit in shock. I should get in touch with York to see how my application is doing. McMaster would be awesome, but my first choice is still York.
