#bkbf16

I’m researching the extremely long list of vendors at @brooklynbookfestival to pitch events and books to (from the press I work for as well as for AALR’s Open In Emergency Issue about Asian Americans & Mental Health. Preorder that loveliness here!), as well as which journals to submit to and future possible publishers for that mixed media project I’m working on. 

I know I should’ve done it while there was still light out today but anxiety & procrastination got in the way. #mrrobot is worth it but I could’ve watched it after #bkbf haha. 

So it’s 1:30 in the morning and I’m only up to the C’s. This is also another form of procrastination but it feels good to write about ambition and aspirations when it was never a real part of my life.

Not like this anyway.

Never like this.

I definitely want to attend events but I’m not sure I can. I don’t think each vendor interaction will take that long but we’ll see.

It’d be good to sit my ass down for a hour and be a fangirl around my favorite hehe. I love the camaraderie that comes with being part of an eager audience. I should do at least three events. I just hope I get there early enough and not oversleep.

So much is happening and I’ve been writing more on my facebook and neglecting this precious baby blog but I hope to return to form. Maybe it’s a good thing I’m writing on fb instead of tumblr (BLASPHEMOUS) since it means I’m becoming more open with the people who know me personally, rather than the handful who actually know me on this blog in real life.

But I do miss seeing my writing on here, so I’m going to make more of an effort to tumblr more, beyond reblogs. And if I reblog, then hopefully they’ll contain jump offs.  I just want to make this more personal again, y’know?

Anyway, I’m feeling optimistic about tomorrow. Even if I don’t finish, I’ll at least have a TON of vendors to already visit.

Back to the drawing board. I’ve got three google spreadsheets to write in/print out.
