MODERATORS
Arts Tasmania have writing awards open for submissions and I submitted 3 stories (2 of my kids horror and one unpublished one). The likelihood of winning is slim, but I can't help think about what winning might do for my bonafides. And then I start thinking about what I'd say as an acceptance speech.
I've always had that habit of thinking about everything that could happen if things turn out as desired (rarely ever do). It's something I wish I could do and then forget about until the time comes up.
Does anyone else do this though? Plan for something and then get excited/think about the possibilities? I feel like I jinx myself by doing it.
First up: good luck!!! Put out positivity!!
Second: yessss, I am a shocker for it. My bf casually mentioned it'd be fun for us to do some streaming last night and sure enough, I was then in the shower thinking about how fun it would be to be a streamer with, like, hundreds of people in chat and interacting and what we might do. Urg. It is great fun being a dreamer though, I wouldn't change it!
Thank you!
