Today:

— got a fresh list of potential contracts from a friend (the guy who took the 80+K year job I turned down) which I’ve been e-mailing and calling.

— confirmed that I’m getting the referral fee from the recruiter for said job.

— finalized the ad code for the snakepilot blog ( http://www.snakepilot.candyham.com ) so I might actually start getting paid for this thing. (Reminder: it’s a blog about my professional transition journey. I get paid for clicks and stuff. Go check it out, please?)

— worked on the next Zero Point Zero column.

— confirmed with Jeff Robinson that I’ll be doing a class through the Online School of Poetry. It’ll be called “To Voice Through Class” and will be geared toward helping beginning writers with personal/political work move from impassioned abstractions to more powerful, more concrete, poetry. Fees and structure to follow. For more info on school and faculty: http://www.onlineschoolofpoetry.com

I’m going out now to do a little shopping; might hit the Hut for lunch and ‘surfing. Later, gators.
