Published! And Other Misc Updates...


Big news: one of my flash fiction pieces, "Glide, Twirl," was published in the online literary journal amphibi.us! You can read it here. You'll notice this was published 2.5 weeks ago and I'm just now announcing it. I have a good excuse for my hiatus, however. I took a trip. To HAWAII (!!!). And received the notification email while I was lounging in Waikiki. Which is basically as good as life gets.

Also, one humorous story and one significant life update:
1) I flashed two guys (accidentally) while boogie boarding in Hawaii. The surf was, shall we say, quite aggressive that day, and keeping my swimsuit top properly positioned while staying belly-down on a slippery foam board that is bobbing around like mad was just too many things to coordinate. Trying to re-adjust my swimsuit underwater while not allowing the board to float away so as to leave me stranded at sea was also difficult, but I succeeded. And then promptly beached myself, half-drowned and whacking myself over the head with the board as I landed. I am nothing if not a smooth young lady of poise and grace.
2) Josh and I will be leaving Boston on May 31 to move to Taiwan! Josh will be studying Mandarin at National Taiwan University in Taipei until August, at which point we plan to move to China (Specific location TBD). We're thrilled about our upcoming Asian adventures!

I hope to improve my boogie boarding skills among the kind people of Taiwan...
