Hey people, you think I should join ???? Leave your comments here please....I'm a bit undecided..have been working on something for the past 4 days, I was awfully busy too which is why I didn't blog about anything - surprising kan? ;) Decided that catching up on sleep was more important.

SHOULD I SUBMIT MY WORK ???

Title :
Call for Submissions - Urban Odysseys: KL Stories *Deadline extended*
Venue :
MPH Bookstores Sdn Bhd
Date & Time :
DEADLINE: Thu 31 Jan 2008
Email :
mphpublishing@mph.com.my
Synopsis :

MPH Group Publishing are calling out for submissions of short fiction and creative non-fiction for an anthology tentatively entitled "Urban Odysseys: KL Stories". The aim is to publish the anthology in 2008, depending on the number of submissions received.The theme of the anthology will focus on life in the city, specifically Kuala Lumpur, with writings that show images of the new juxtaposed against the old, urban living with contrasting bright lights and shadowy realities and other short fiction or creative non-fiction which best encapsulate the spirit of the national capital. This is not a travel book but an anthology of literary writings about the city.Stories must be original, between 3,000 and 5,000 words, and must not have been previously published.

They invite submissions from both emerging and established writers.

Hmm...
It sounds really interesting though...
Thanks in advance for all your feedback guys !

WISDOM

Blogging is Addictive. Should have come with warnings. But to my credit, I only started a blog after I've completed my formal studies in both academia and dance. So I'm allowed to blog because technically, I've no 'real' commitments to exams and grades and yadaa yadaa..got quite some time on my hands..

Plus I love to write anyway..ask those people who used to be in my BK class and Eng Lit class.I wrote 12 pages for my SPM eng lit and bout 10 pages for my SPM BK exams.

Bloggin is my new writing outlet now. Until I get to Uni and have tons of writing assignments to do, I will use this blog to write, write, and write !!!

So actually, blogging's not that addictive. I was just deprived of an writing outlet for too long. I mean, yakking on the phone with my pals hasn't got quite the same effect. Descargo should be a way of life ! Well, maybe it is, just that the super stressed me never knew it before.

" Life is the road I wanna keep going, Love is the river I wanna keep flowing "
Some song by The Clientele I was just listening to earlier.

A HUGE THANK YOU whoever who reads and comments - LEXA

But my biggest gratitude is for God. Who sparked the idea into my head in the first place.
