Something else that happened recently was submitting part of my story to the Brisbane Writer's Festival '20 pages in 20 minutes.'
You had to apply to this thing. It didn't say anything about money, but yes, it cost $150.

That's fine. Honestly, having to read 20 pages of text takes time and then getting to wherever and sitting down with people giving them your considered opinion takes thought. $150 is actually a bargain. I'm annoyed that there was no indication of the cost up front but at the same time, I don't mind paying.
So, my appointment for this is in a week and I'm terrified as well as excited.
After next Thursday I'll come back to update you on how that went. If I can. If I'm not shattered into a million pieces.
