On the long and winding road to self-publish my novelette Low Life Games, I had one firm date in my diary - today's, 17th May 2008. A self-publishing conference, possibly the UK's first, to be held in Brighton, my new home town.
The last two and half months, I have been busy and got thoroughly exahusted, moving here and sorting my home out. The few attempts I have made to make the final, necessary revisions to the manuscript have ended quickly in anti-climax. I'm not sure I want to go ahead withe project now. At the back of my mind and still vague, is a more epic theme for something new.
Nevertheless, my practical side told me it would be good to self publish, and that the conference would revive my enthusiasm. Besides, 17th May was by coincidence one of the few Saturdays of the year my mother did not need my company.
A few days ago I checked for the conference's exact location...
It had disappeared from my Bookmark's list - or the site had been rewritten. I googled the appropriate words - and the only relevant entry (at number 2) was my own post on the subject back in March. At the time safriz commented
Eventually, yesterday, I tracked the Conference site down. It had been scheduled to be held today but... it's been postponed to a new date, as yet undecided.
So what's the divine being's view on my self-publishing prjoect now?
"Behold,thats why the divine being bestowed upon ye moving to brighton"
