Silm, HP and RL

I have artwork up in several places! For the Silmarillion I have an entry in the Back to Middle earth Month 2008 over at the Silmarillion Writers Guild, where many different people's love and appreciation for Tolkien is honoured during this month. If you haven't visited these pages to drool over artwork and excerpts from stories from some of the best artists and writers out there, I hope you will take the time. The main page for the B2MeM is here, where you can access last weeks themes - and the one with my entry is here.

For Harry Potter I have an entry in The tales of slings, arrows and outrageous fortune challenge over on redandthewolf. My entry is here. This link will also take you to the first drabble I have ever written and made public. ;)

In RL I have been to a recruitment exam in the UN. I think it went well - I certainly did the best I could, so I have no regrets there. However, and perhaps indicative of the efficiency of the UN, I will not receive my result until July at the earliest. And as I'm thouroughly fed up with wasting my skills in my current job, I need to sit down and make a plan so I can get started applying for jobs where I can actually use the education I have laboured to get for a much too large part of my life! I'll need to be very strict with myself because I just know that I would rather draw and read than try to sell my skills to strangers... You are hereby invited to kick me every once in a while, because I know I will deserve it. ;) And now I'm off to.... draw some more I think!
