This is a happy post!

So there's my oldest friend, who I've known since Year 4 in Primary School (over 20 years ago!). He's also one of my best friends. Then there's another one of my best friends, who I've known since the later years of high school, and his girlfriend who's also become a really good friend over the last few years. These three people are some of my favourite people in the world and they've been living in a sharehouse together along wiht a bunch of other people over the last few years.

Anyway, we all know that one of the realities of house renting and sharehousing is that sometimes the house you're living in gets sold and there's nothing you can do about it and sometimes anyway it's just time for a sharehouse to end and so you all have to move out. Which is what just happened to my friends.

Well, they've all found new houses now - my oldest friend with one of the other housemates, and my other friend and his girlfriend with each other. And their new houses are only about ten minutes walk from my house! BEST FRIENDS WHO I NEVER GET TO SEE ENOUGH OF MOVING INTO MY NEIGHBOURHOOD!!!

OH ALSO,

I've been trying to get a bunch of my short-short text message stories published in various places for a while now, and it's pretty frustrating because the publishing industry's really conservative at the moment, and trying to get stories published is pretty fucking dispiriting at the best of times, so it's not hard to start getting really down about it and I got another rejection email from a local literary magazine the other day - but this is what the email said:


--- Quote ---Hey, Harry -

I love the idea behind these, and they're the right format for the suites of short-shorts we're running every issue, but we're full up with those for the year now, and I'd hesitate to accept another suite. If Sleepers doesn't pick them up, or you end up writing more, do you want to try me with a bunch towards the end of the year?

Thanks for the good stuff either way
