Next Steps

I missed some school due to illness, so I'm delighted to be back and working on my project again. I met with my mentor on Tuesday to discuss next steps. I have been rejected from a few of the publishing places I sent my work to but I am waiting to hear back from a couple more. In the meantime, I am hoping to organize an open reading during the spring where students from my school, including myself, will be able to present poetry, fiction, or music in front of an audience. I am eager to delve into the world of spoken word as opposed to just written as I know from poetry slams I've been apart of before, that it's a whole new ball game. Similarly, I am beginning to work on my final presentation and thinking about how to tell my story of this project. Currently, I am thinking of incorporating a spoken word component but I'll have to develop the idea further later down the road.
