This morning marked our last book seminar, and in a couple hours we will begin our book workshop. We’ve heard many stories about how intense the workshop is. I can’t say that I quite comprehend what to anticipate. We’re broken into mock publishing houses and then have to publish mock books. We’re each assigned a position (marketing, editing, subsidiary rights, etc) and apparently there’s a lot of all nighters involved. All nighters are not my preferred academic technique. No school work has ever been worth sacrificing sleep for, and I’d much rather just budget my time well so that I can go to bed at a reasonable hour rather than procrastinate.

Given that I don’t believe that L.H. is going to find me the jobs I want, I’ve started my own job hunt. I’m lurking on MediaBistro.com, poking around the staff pages of magazines, and trawling Monster.com. Nothing yet. Waiting. Trying to be patient.
