2011 was an intensely action-packed year for me. My life isn't often action-packed, so I thought I'd make a list of things I did/what happened. It's more for me to remember than for any of you to read, but here you go anyway.



Last year I . . .

-began writing for an established blog (The Hooded Utilitarian)
-first read The Hunger Games (not that impressed)
-lived with my best friends as they got divorced
-learned what epidemiology is
-had conversations with my niece for the first time
-was contacted by both an agent and an editor
-first watched Supernatural
-produced and directed a play
-met the Deputy Administrator of NOAA
-went to Victoria, BC
-signed a contract with an agent and a publisher
-first (really) listened to MUSE
-hosted a panel at a con (Geek Girl Con in Seattle)
-wrote a book
-went to the PRIDE parade
-moved house
-wrote at least 12 fanfics
-shared curriculum about health I created with visitors from the CDC
-was emailed by the actor who played Omar Little on The Wire
-ceased having a working car
-had someone develop a crush on me, which has never ever happened before
-beta'ed some awesome fanfic
-first started watching M*A*S*H
-got an ipad
-realized that the last four years have changed me more than any other time of my life that I can recall

There's only one book. Isn't there? But I'm always trying to write other ones. Right now I'm writing a gay Beauty and the Beast. The merchant father doesn't let Beauty pay for his mistakes. He's a sort of Mr Bennett. IN DISGUISE.

Omar Little! Michael K Williams said something like, "hey, can I get a copy of your book when it comes out?". This was before we knew we were doing a book.

I got to beta/review some really satisfying stuff this year. Speaking of gender switch, one was a gender switch Persuasion. I sort of didn't keep up with it though so I'm afraid the writers may have given up on me. I should email them!
